Maestro Media Consulting

Owner

I worked at MindShare since it was established in 1997. I managed a team looking after Kraft Foods, KC, Dyson, Tourism Ireland, American Express and Motorola. I managed these clients on a pan-regional basis, and on Kraft globally.The work ranged from developing regional media strategies, to resolving problems in local offices.

MindShare

Managing Partner

I moved to JWT Athens, (or Spot Thompson as it was then known), in October 1992.  I originally planned to stay there for 2 years, but I ended up staying for 3 and a half.  Athens is a great city, and Greece is a fascinating culture - it really is at the crossroads between Europe and the middle east and you feel those two diverse cultures all the time.  My work was predominantly as deputy media director, looking after the international clients such as Kellogg's, Kraft, Kodak and Bacardi.  I learnt a huge amount about business whilst I was there from the local management. But all good things come to an end, and we returned to London soon after the birth of our first baby.

JWT Athens

Deputy Media Director

I joined JWT in 1982 as a TV buyer.  The bad old days of pre-emptions and manual schedules. After a few years I moved over to the planning side, and learnt some good planning skills.  I did this until 1992 when I moved to greece.Clients I worked with included Cadbury, Pizza Hut, Castrol, Pepsi and many others.I won a few media week awards in my time there, including campaign of the year for Euthymol toothpaste in 1991.
