Robert Wakeland

Robert Wakeland is a Group Creative Director with 20+ years experience in the advertising industry, working at agencies such as Ogilvy, BBDO and McCann. He excels at crafting compelling brand narratives and overseeing the development of innovative, award-winning campaigns. In addition to a deep understanding of consumer behavior and an eye for design, he helps inspire and mentor creative teams to deliver exceptional work.

Robert's love for design started from his parents. His father Preston, who was an engineer, and his mother Beth a graphic designer. Preston ran his own business with a main focus of furniture making. So at a very young age, Robert learned not only to endure the mind-numbing chore of sanding, but also an appreciation for every aspect of design and craft.
