An unusual agency, and some extraordinary people
Joanna Lippiatt
Senior Account Director
Joanna has worked at a number of London’s leading agencies, many of them focused on the financial and professional services sectors. In her (very little) spare time she plays regular netball in one of the London Leagues and also confesses to a fascination with the world of traditional baking, taking particular delight in decorating celebratory cakes. She is at pains to point out that she never combines her passion for netball with her passion for baking, ‘as that might be messy’.Matt Kebbell
Video Production
Said not to have smiled since the summer of ’69, Matt is a regular winner of AML’s Mr Happy Award. But as he’d be the first to point out, who needs smiles when your video content is second to none?Christian Barnes
Strategy Director
Christian heads up the AML strategy team and has over 35 years’ experience of working with clients from household automotive and FMCG brands such as P&G, Cadbury and Perrier - to financial, educational, charitable, chartered and legal organisations. Outside work, Christian intends to ski and sail as long as his knees and his bank manager support him - but is more often to be found watching rugby, ballet, film or theatre - or, indeed, the foam atop a hoppy IPA.
Tim Lloyd
Managing Director
Since being tricked into doing a presentation in a nurse’s uniform when he started working at Allison Mitchell back in 1993, Tim has moved from the role of trickee to master trickster. Outside of work (and that outfit) his preferred pastimes revolve around horse riding, flying and driving tractors.Lucy Rogers
Business Director
Lucy has seen it all in client services and prides herself on being truly unflappable – an invaluable trait among AML’s account handlers. Two things she’s sure to lose her cool around though are her twin loves of food and dogs. Throw in a beach and she’s pretty much in heaven.
Eleonora Rimini
Marketing Manager
Eleonora recently completed a languages degree, which she followed up with a year of valuable experience working in two in-house brand-marketing roles in Europe. Fluent in both French and Italian, her continentally acquired addiction to coffee sees her endlessly scouring London for that perfect cappuccino.Ian Henderson
CEO
Endlessly fascinated by business, brands and human behaviour, Ian brings extensive experience to his role as creative director, strategist, writer and agency head. His varied interests also include bikes and boats, but they’ve both proven tricky to enjoy inside the agency – so far.Annabelle Meddows-Taylor
Senior Account Manager
Having recently moved to London from Sydney, Annie brings her talent for building big brands to AML. She enjoys travelling, listening to podcasts and is a proper foodie and ‘drinkie’ (Aussie for ‘pub-crawler’?).Duncan Walters
Experience Partner
Car and bike enthusiast with the (not so) secret soul of a geek, Duncan brought his love for data to AML. He heads up our Experience team and has over 15 years’ experience leading digital and integrated strategies. He helps brands grow by leveraging intelligence, content, behaviour and technology – impressive, almost as much as his wood fired cooking skills!Mat Carpenter
Visualiser/Artworker
In his time before AML, Mat worked in high-end fashion and the publishing world - enhancing images for some of the world’s most prestigious brands. Outside work, Mat’s an F1 obsessive, though as he says, “I’ll watch anything if it’s on a race track”. The high-octane thrills aren’t confined to the trackside however; snowboarding season will find him performing ‘Canadian Bacons’, ‘Cross-rockets’, and ‘Super-Mindys’ wherever the powder is freshest.Silvia Cutrera
Junior Copywriter
Copywriter by day, ukulele-armed-wannabe-comedian by night, Silvia’s life is quite different from her old days as a lawyer in Italy. Still, now as before, she loves to eat, sing, and talk a lot. With her hands, of course.Merope Beddard
Client Services Director
With over fifteen years’ agency experience, Merope heads up the account handling team at AML. When she’s not busy building brands, nurturing client relationships or listening to Radio 6, you’ll find her sprinting down the streets of Clerkenwell (she’s an active member of AML’s running club).Dan Anderson
Head of Delivery
A highly experienced, cross-discipline project director, Dan is the man when it comes to making sure AML delivers. He enjoys 10k runs along the Brighton seafront, as well as pilgrimages up and down the country to watch his beloved Brighton and Hove Albion. Dan also likes to cook pig’s head with langostines. It is, he assures us, delicious.
