Testimonials
Pete brings to the emerging digital media landscape something it sorely needs - a grown-up cross-platform perspective rooted in hands-on practice and leadership across both 'conventional' and digital media. Ever-enthusiastic, Pete is a great counsel in navigating this ever-changing space, and his combination of business-savvy and creativity make him a pleasure to partner with too.
I have worked with Pete on 3 occasions, for various organisations over the past 20 years and have genuinely enjoyed the experience each time. Pete has a multi-disciplined background, starting out as a traditional media planner / buyer before moving into digital at its inception. A smart move on his behalf... He has continued to flourish in this environment through a blend of knowledge, talent and determination. Not only does he possess these skills but he also has boundless enthusiasm which is truly infectious and as such he is a great guy to have on your team.
Experienced and results driven, Pete has worked across all aspects of media for some of the biggest brands and agencies in the world and in many different countries. His amazing experience shines through, especially when leveraging world class marketing strategy alongside an in-depth understanding of the media ecosystem to deliver exceptional results. I was fortunate enough to work closely with Pete during his current time at Reckitt. One of the most memorable aspects of this was watching him lead a 2 day integrated comms planning session, in person, where he demonstrated the rare skill of being able to make complex things simple, find the right path and bring more than 60 delegates along with him all totally engaged. There was great structure, much creativity and finally actionable outputs everyone could follow and embrace. Pete is incredibly connected globally, and as one of the nicest men in media, is always happy to help others. As your CMO, you can relax in the knowledge that both your business and personnel will level up under his stewardship. I really hope to work with him again in the future.
