Fearless. Truthful. Unexpected.

Ben’s career started at international consulting firm Foolproof working with clients in NYC, Vancouver, Hong Kong, Shanghai and Paris – which also gave him a global perspective on HNWIs. A move to JWT, the home of planning, saw him build global advertising strategies for Nokia, HSBC and Shell. His subsequent role at Imagination gave him valuable experience in the world of branding and design before he joined Keko London – first as Managing Partner and now as COO.

When he’s not thinking about work, Ben is thinking (very occasionally) about keeping fit.

Prior to this Chris worked in advertising, spending most of his career as Group Director at Saatchi & Saatchi, where he was responsible for clients including Mars, P&G and some infamous work for Club 18-30. He finished his time in advertising as a strategic planner in NYC, where he enjoyed the start of the first dot com boom and the end of the New York Mad Men era (ask him, he has some pretty colourful stories).

When not busy planning his new portfolio lifestyle, Chris likes to maintain his ‘life balance’ by playing chess (mind), coaching rugby (body) and painting (spirit).

His career has also seen him work closely with a diverse group of progressive thinking clients, including Samsung and Waterstones.

When his mind isn’t strategically wired, he’s focused on collecting – and obsessively hoards – trainers, books, instruments, and vinyl records. In fact, “he’s gonna need a bigger house”.

As Creative Head she works across all brands in the Keko portfolio, working with the team to deliver integrated, insight driven campaigns to a diverse range of markets worldwide.
