Eden started for a simple reason. I'd spent two decades in and around agencies, the big ones and the smaller ones. The work was often good. The structure rarely was. Layers between the client and the people thinking the work through. Junior teams learning on someone else's budget. Process built for the agency's economics, not the client's outcome.

Eden is the deliberate opposite of all of that. Bring senior people in directly. Scope each engagement around the actual problem. Cut everything else.

I lead on strategy and growth, working directly with founders and marketing leads from the first conversation through to delivery. There's no handover step where I disappear and a delivery team takes over. That's the whole point of how we're built.

“My job is to absorb complexity, not perform it back to you. If a meeting feels heavy, I haven't done my job yet.

Ben Sullivan, On working with Eden

How I plug in

When Eden brings me in.

Usually at the start of an engagement, when the brief isn't clear yet and the client needs help shaping it. Sometimes mid-project, when something's drifted and a more senior voice is needed in the room.

I lead on the strategy and growth side, positioning, audience, the commercial logic underneath the work. I work directly with founders or marketing leads. No layers, no translators.

Before now

Three chapters.

CH 01
Network agency leadership
Senior strategy roles at major network agencies in London. Learned the craft. Learned why the structure didn't work for clients or for the work itself.
CH 02
Independent studio
Co-founded and ran an independent digital studio. A decade of work across luxury, hospitality and wellness. Sold to a holding group.
CH 03
Eden Group
Founded Eden in 2025. Designed deliberately as a collective, senior people only, no rosters, no overhead, scoped to the brief.
