Hey, if you’RE looking for a senior SUPER-creative, who saw the world, and chose finland.

"His team trusts him, and so does our leadership team. He has the rare ability to lead people while developing his creative side at the same time.

The same goes for Ben in presentations. He is calm, trustworthy and has a natural charisma that makes everybody in the room listen.
I don't say this lightly: he's one of the best colleagues I've worked with."

ABOUT ME

I’m Ben, a trilingual Senior Art Director, with a business school background, and experience ranging from everything between advertising, venture capital, tech startups and International Business Machines.

My story really picks up with me receiving my Master’s at Hanken School of Economics, but something isn’t sitting right. A moment of self-reflection later, and I’m off to study digital creativity at Hyper Island in Sweden, which then takes me to agencies in London and San Francisco. Fast forward to today, I’m back in Finland, where I’ve spent the past 10 years perfecting my craft and leading creative units as a Group Head / Senior Art Director.

I love meeting new people, so don’t be shy to reach out.
