CREATIVE & DESIGN HEADHUNTER
Hi I’m Mads 👋
I’ve always had a personal connection to art and design. Creativity wasn’t just an interest, it was how I understood the world. I wrote music, played guitar, painted, and immersed myself in the performing arts, constantly exploring new ways to express ideas and emotion.
That passion led me to perform on the West End, exhibit my artwork in galleries, and publish my own music. I began my professional career as a Runner on set for advertising, became a content creator and then moved into PR; conceptualising innovative end-to-end campaigns. These experiences gave me a real understanding of the creative process, the discipline behind great craft, and the collaboration required to bring ambitious ideas to life.
Today, I use that first-hand experience to build and nurture exceptional creative teams. I know how to recognise true talent, understand what creatives need to thrive, and connect the right people with the right opportunities.
