Diccon Driver

We worked with Rik recently on a big global pitch. He was cool, calm and collected and consistently came up with great ideas. He was everything a CD needs in a fast-paced, pitch situation.

Rik. Pulls ideas out of nowhere. Spots good ones from a mile away. And has always given every brief that we’ve given him everything he’s got. It also helps that he’s just a bloody nice bloke.

Rik is a brilliant creative, a grown up in all the best ways: strategically smart and a fast creative problem solver. When you have a knotty problem to crack, he asks the difficult questions, quickly understands the constraints and opportunities and works hard and fast on great creative solutions - whether on his own work or directing teams.

I had the pleasure of working with Rik over the course of two separate jobs, a campaign and rebrand/strategy piece. Working remotely was seamless, (I'm in Sydney, Rik in the UK). Rik always delivered the goods, and helped push and elevate both pieces with his writing and creative view point, always adding more than what was just in the brief.
I look forward to working together again soon.

Rik is a reliable, pragmatic creative, with a flair for words and a natural ability to make abstract concepts commercial in a matter of minutes. Really enjoyed working with him!

I've thoroughly enjoyed working with Rik at GSK. He joined us for a number of creative sprints and immediately became a trusted part of the team. Rik's expertise in creative direction was right at home in helping us design experimental social campaigns for North America. His ideas helped us identify target audiences and his more refined concepts later enabled us to build trust with these groups. We set ambitious deadlines and had to be agile throughout due to new data and insights constantly shifting our trajectory. Rik met these challenges with aplomb. Unflappable, down to earth, flexible and professional. It was a privilege to have Rik on our team and I hope we'll have the chance to work together again in the future.
