Stephen has an absolute passion for creative and for copy. Stephen was my senior copywriter for two years. I was impressed by his professionalism and his ability to handle our toughest client. Stephen's ability to juggle multiple projects really had a positive impact on the team's productivity. It was a pleasure working with him and I really feel that he would be an asset to any team.

Stephen is the kind of young creative all creative departments need - he wants to learn, wants to be creative and wants to do great work. He's a bright lad with bags of energy and passion that culminates in some great thinking and presentations. He has the making of a superstar if he's given the right opportunity - i'd defiantly hire him again!

      I created, oversaw, and managed the development and implementation of Midwich's vendor marketing campaigns. I led planning meetings, devised strategies for upcoming briefs, ensured that tasks were delivered on time, and executed all areas of digital marketing to maximise ROI results.

      I worked at various business-to-business focused agencies, creating technology driven content and presentations for global brands. I wrote scripts for Casio, Verizon, and Vodafone, each of which won the agencies more future work. Plus, I set up a more effective email format to achieve better ROI results from NHS staff. Along with my day-to-day work, I performed additional tasks for these organisations, including rebuilding a company website.Agencies: Avatar Creative | Maxwell Rogers | Practicus | Revere Agency

      Working with our art directors, I create impactful concepts, write interesting copy and present the work to our clients. My main focus is direct mail but I also write our point of sale and digital copy. The target audience is always Tesco Clubcard customers but I do have to write for a variety of different brands wanting to use dunnhumby to promote their products and new products. I also managed interns that joined the agency. Working with our art directors, I create impactful concepts, write interesting copy and present the work to our clients.

      I’ve visited my old university multiple times to set the advertising creative course students various briefs and to give feedback on their portfolios. I also took on the responsibility of being a mentor and helped the student gain a job in their first year. Plus, I've also lectured at Bournemouth University.

      I was invited into multiple agencies to help with their digital activity, direct mail, brand creation, experiential projects, and integrated campaigns. During this time I also lead a pitch team made up of art directors, designers and strategists from creative conception to final presentation.Agencies: Banner Managed Communication | Brand Development | BrocklebankPenn | DDB Remedy | Dunnhumby | Independent United | JWT | M Digital | Momentum Worldwide | Mr President | Saatchi & Saatchi Health | SapientNitro | Spinnaker Direct LLP | Superhero Screen | Them London | TMW | Virgin Active | Zone

      I joined VML London with an art director but after a few months, he left and I took on his role too. I was tasked with taking charge of a wide-range of clients, covering digital, point of sale, scripts and integrated campaigns. For much of my time there was no Creative Director, so I also had to head up the creative direction.

      Before, during and after university, I honed my copywriting skills in the advertising industry. I worked at many agencies around the world. During this time, I had my first campaigns go live and saw the complete process first hand. This included work for Geek Squad, Greenpeace, Lucozade, O2, and Volkswagen.Agencies: ICLP | Loft | Ogilvy & Mather | Proximity London | RedWorks | Table19Placements: Archibald Ingall Stretton | Bates 141 Worldwide | Billington Cartmell | DDB UK | Friends Advertising | SOUK360 | The Concept Farm
