Tim Cowan, Account Director, joins Firedog team
We are very chuffed to announce that we have managed to secure the skills and experience of Tim who has joined Firedog to head up the growing account team. This move builds upon our continued efforts to improve and develop our client service levels.
We chose Tim in this role, due to his on point management skills combined with his 17 years of creative agency experience. Having both worked in agencies and within his own business, we feel that Tim will bring a great deal to the studio.
Tim heralds originally from the mid west state of Oklahoma, the eldest of three country brothers and grandson of a Red Indian. Having learnt all he could working in his father’s lift business, he left his self professed “red- neck” neighbourhood at the age of 27 for the bikinis and bicycles of New Port Beach, Orange County, California. Being a natural people person, Tim slipped easily into the marketing and new business role for big lift business, Thyssens. Meanwhile, he met his future wife Donna, a Brit hotelier working in the area.
Tim ended up moving to the UK in 1994 after falling in love with the English tradition of celebrating Christmas properly. After helping his wife set up and run a successful eatery, Tim entered the world of the creative agency. He worked for a number of years in London before setting up his own shop in his home town of Colchester. Having completed the hard work of raising two boys, Tim’s attention turned back to the bright lights of London, where he has decided to help take Firedog to the next level. Tim’s sideline passion is the gentleman’s world of Rugby, having both played and coached at Colchester rugby club. When he’s not coaching or learning new stuff, Tim endures his nostalgic habit of collecting and restoring antiques, bestowing upon them a new lease of life.
Welcome Tim!
