How i can help?

I have over twenty years experience working my way up the ladder in advertising production. Take a look at my experience here.

I set up Curious Connections in 2020- the only headhunter in London who has worked as a senior producer in top production companies, inhouse production, creative agencies and post production. You can see some of my clients here.

I am engaged by my clients from top creative agencies, production companies, post houses and brands to find the ideal producer for their team. This is known as an “introductory service” and is different from an “agent” or a “diary service”. As such, there is no charge to candidates when working with me,

Please do send me your latest CV (as a PDF) anytime, I love scheduling as many calls as I can with new people. I set aside at least 25% of my working week for calls with new candidates as I hunt for producers from all sorts of backgrounds for my live briefs
