Ken is a Melbourne-based strategy consultant who helps brand find their sweet spot in the market. Through Corner Three, he works at the intersection of marketing leadership and creative teams – the messy space where business objectives either become great work, or get lost in translation.
The first half of his career was spent inside creative agencies, developing campaigns for organisations including Google, Toyota, NAB, Coles, Microsoft, Mastercard, AAMI, Optus and Australia Post. That background provides something most strategy consultants don't have: a genuine understanding of what a creative team needs from a brief, and what makes strategic thinking inspiring rather than just defensible.
Corner Three is the independent practice built around that gap — working with in-house marketing leaders who have talented creative teams but need sharper strategy to connect the two. The practice operates as a focused solo consultancy, with access to a trusted network of creative partners and designers where engagements call for broader capability.
Ken's strategic work has been recognised at Cannes Lions (Gold, Silver and Bronze), Spikes Asia (Gold and Bronze), the Effies (Finalist and Bronze), D&AD (Graphite Pencil) and the Jay Chiat Strategy Awards (Gold). He has served as a judge at the Effies, AWARD Awards and WCA Awards, and holds qualifications in business strategy from Harvard Business School Online and a Mini MBA in Marketing with Mark Ritson.
Corner Three is named for the space on a basketball court where the geometry is hardest — and where the reward for getting it right is greatest.
