Hey I’m Josh, a digital expert from Auckland, NZ.
Currently, I’m managing a creative studio, optimising programmatic campaigns, nurturing client relationships, scrutinising data and advising on campaign strategy.
Previously, I worked as an Account Manager in Manchester, UK.
With years in media, working across programmatic, digital and traditional channels, I’m experienced in the media landscape and have a variety of skills that allow me to bring value to clients.
I am constantly thinking critically and questioning if there are better ways things can be done.
