John Kilgour

John owns THE DM GROUP. Enough said.

Ian Ross

Ian Ross – Head of Digital
In 2006, trademarkDM launched its digital arm, clickDM, and handed Ian the reins. Since then, clickDM has tripled in size. And no wonder. Not only does Ian have all the digital and multimedia know-how you’d expect, he also has a background in traditional production – film, television and radio. These skills combined with Ian’s habit of staying up way past his bedtime have led to some of the most innovative and effective digital solutions our clients have seen.

Georgie Obst

Georgie Obst – Account Director
It’s not often that someone gets promoted by client request, but that’s what sparked Georgie’s promotion to account director. And no wonder her clients adore her. As well as offering them solid strategic thinking, Georgie also takes care of the  small details – and it’s not often you find an account director who’s willing to read a PDS with a red pen and a fine tooth comb. But everything Georgie does comes with a ‘if it’s worth doing, it’s worth doing right’ philosophy, including her passion for swimming. Which she does at 6am. Every morning.

David Findlay

David Findlay – Production Manager
David has been with artworkDM since its inception, trademarkDM for over a decade and he has 21 years experience in the production of direct, mainstream and retail advertising. During his career, he’s overseen the print production for famous brands like Mazda, Mercedes, Yellow Pages, Telstra and The Age. David’s also a bit of a sports nut, which goes some way towards explaining his team spirit, his determination to never drop the ball and his unsettling habit of wearing shorts in the office.

David B

David Buttigieg – Art Director
You’d never guess it, but David Buttigieg (we can’t pronounce it either) is a turncoat. He worked as a senior account manager for three years – on Mercedes-Benz in London, and on Ford and Sensis in Melbourne – before he switched sides and joined the creative department. And we’re very glad he did. Not only is he a superb art director and solid creative thinker, he lists watching Saturday morning cartoons with his wife, son and dog as a favourite activity.
