A few kind words from people who know what they’re talking about.
Talented. Smart thinking. And great to work with. Constantly surprises and never lets you down. Proper craft. All round class act. And did I say great to work with :)
— Nick Rowland, Creative Director, VMLY&R.
“Andy is one of the best creative people I've ever worked with. In his time at St Lukes he produced not just great work but brand defining work - smashing some of the most complex briefs the agency had ever faced with work my company is still proud of. He has the strength to fight his corner tenaciously and the maturity to see the world from a client's perspective. His judgement is faultless.”
— Al Young, CCO, St Luke’s Communications
"Bill Bernbach once said – ‘it’s not enough to be good, you have to be nice as well’. Sadly, Chris fails on both counts. He’s very good and very nice. It’s enough to make you sick. But if you can get past that you’ll find Chris a great addition to any creative department.
Of course he can do the good stuff. That should be evident from his portfolio. But he can also turn even the most desperate red-headed, buck teethed stepchild of a brief into something presentable. And that’s the sign of someone really good. Basically he’s a pro. He does this through excellent craft skills, attention to detail and in this new, ever changing world with old-fashioned virtues of hard graft. And he does it all with an unassuming modesty and quiet humour.
Hire him. He’ll make you and your agency look really clever. And good. Very good."
— Alex Grieve, CCO, AMV BBDO.
“I've worked with Andy at two different agencies. On big, global brands. On UK-centric brands. On grown-up, luxury brands. On kids' brands. On chocolate brands. On coffee brands. Andy is a fantastic creative talent, who gets it right every time. A great ability to come up with ideas for all channels, with an advantage when it comes to storytelling, especially (but certainly not limited to!) when the story needs to get you to smile or laugh out loud. When we have to review work, I can't wait to hear what he has come up with this time. A pleasure to work with. A good all-around person. A great talent. And a sharp mind for creative direction. If I could hire him right now I would.”
— Lucas Peon, CCO, The Gate London.
“Chris is a wonderfully calm and collected Creative Director and was a linchpin in our integrated team across Braun here at Grey. His demeanour and approach coupled with his exceptional design credentials allowed us to produce a huge body of work and Chris was integral in helping to continue to drive forward a reinvigorated brand look and feel for Braun. I look forward to working with Chris again in the future.”
— Mark Rees-Weeden, Managing Partner, Grey London
