Dare’s CEO has been celebrated as one of the 100 most influential people in the UK digital industry, at BIMA’s 4th annual celebration.

This is Leigh’s profile, as published by BIMA…

Leigh’s career has spanned across two continents (UK & South Africa), and she has been responsible for some highly awarded effective work across a range of dynamic UK and global brands including John Lewis, EE, Nike, and British Airways.

She was MD at Saatchi & Saatchi, and three years ago joined Dare. She has been instrumental on re-focusing the agency on its digital strengths, which has led to significant client wins such as Nike, Investec, Irn-Bru, and Experian in the last 12 months.

Leigh chairs the IPA groups for Client Relations and Commerciality, and is on the membership committee for WACL. In her spare time she tries to keep up with technology and her two children, Graydon and Cameron. Her husband Huw makes sure she always has enough wine to keep her going.

Leigh’s one wish would be…

“…that in some small way, all these hours of work would add up to some positive impact on my children’s lives.”
