Meet Martin Carmody, Wirebox’s brand new Associate Partner (Martin is heading up the new Wirebox office in Milton Keynes). Check out the full announcement here.
Martin spent fifteen years as a freelancer for various agencies as a Creative Lead, before becoming a Creative Director, and then a Managing Director, where he led the agency successfully for nine years, before stepping down in 2021 to pursue other avenues and opportunities in the post COVID-19 era.
His impressive career has seen him work with some of the UK’s leading agencies, Ogilvy being just one. Also, he’s worked on client projects and businesses of all shapes and sizes, from SME’s, to global companies such as Argos, FitBit, VW Group, BP Oil, Kodak, The Open University, and more.
Not only has Martin’s ‘people first’ approach been valuable to a team, but his work has seen him scoop up various awards, including The Drum and Design Week. But by his own admission, one of his proudest achievements has been “working with students on various initiatives, mentoring talented people, and watching them grow.”
Now, Martin is joining Wirebox to lead the vision of the agency, where he’ll be heading up the new office in Milton Keynes.
“Having worked alongside Andrew and the Wirebox team, I’ve been really impressed by their approach, thinking, and talent. I believe that there’s a big opportunity to play a significant part in directing the agency to its next level of ambitious plans to evolve, and to add further value to their clients with growth and development,” said Martin.
Martin, who’s a strong supporter of the Milton Keynes community, believes that MK is the perfect spot for a new Wirebox location. “Milton Keynes has lots of opportunities for all. There’s so much business positivity and activity, and the business community here is really strong,” he said.
He also believes that Milton Keynes’ new City status is going to game-change the area, and that it’s the City’s talented people, business community, infrastructure, brands, and charity initiatives that makes it what it is.
And finally, when asked what Martin aims to bring to the Wirebox table, and to the Milton Keynes business community as a whole, his answer was simple: “best in class customer service, strategic digital solutions, and creative experiences.”
“Our combined knowledge puts us in the best position to compose a topflight team, and provide an environment in which they can grow and develop their skills. Our team is our greatest resource, and we will continue to always look to strengthen it with motivated and enthusiastic people,” he concluded.
