JASON NUTTALL

I am a deeply experienced design leader and brand strategist with a career forged within some of the industry’s most prestigious agencies, including Ogilvy & Mather, Martin*, Translation, and COLLINS—where I was the original hire and helped build the agency from the ground up. Over the years, I have touched every corner of the discipline, directing everything from agile, 360-degree campaign initiatives to massive, multinational brand creations. My work does not just change how a brand looks; it clarifies messaging, drives engagement, and establishes the foundational guiding principles and behaviors that allow businesses to truly differentiate themselves in a crowded marketplace.

With over six years of departmental oversight, I have a proven track record of growing and mentoring high-performing design teams across entire agency rosters. I thrive at the intersection of business strategy and creative execution, possessing extensive experience in evaluating, gauging, and scaling brands to meet evolving market demands. For me, leadership is about fostering an environment where talent can flourish, standards are elevated, and the strategic vision aligns seamlessly with creative output.

Despite my deep experience in leadership and high-level strategy, I remain a designer at heart. I intentionally maintain a hands-on approach to my work, driven by a deep care for the discipline and the physical execution of the craft. This balance allows me to bridge the gap between big-picture brand architecture and the meticulous details of design execution, ensuring that every project I oversee is both strategically sound and beautifully executed.
