I'm a freelance creative director
I make fun things on social media for brands, creators and broadcasters.
Over the last 18 years I've been lucky enough to work for some of the world's biggest companies, creating content, campaigns and social media strategies.
Recently I've also been working with a number of growing businesses, helping to establish marketing strategies, build marketing teams, and develop their brand identity.
I'm always keen to meet interesting new people, so if you'd like to say hello please feel free to get in touch.
"Tom is a rare treat of a human being. Not just a colleague or somebody that sits in the same office/Zoom screen as you, but a fully fledged creative genius and hub of the team.
He will make himself the most loved person in a team within weeks - be warned this is not an easy fix if he leaves.
He's also a seriously talented social first strategy and creative consultant, and the first person I want to talk to about the balance of paid and organic campaigns. In short, he's just a very golden bloke".

When I was in charge of a music festival
"You've made a real and lasting impact at 1st Formations — from launching fresh thinking around our TikTok strategy to reworking our brand positioning and bringing brilliant structure to our marketing department. You truly went above and beyond.
For anyone looking to collaborate with a highly talented, hugely creative freelancer who delivers exactly what he promises (and more), I cannot recommend Tom strongly enough. He’s smart, dependable, and brings real energy and clarity to every challenge".
