Ross Taylor

Initially I trained in finance, business consulting and change management. Then, in 1999, I moved to the leading digital agency of the time, Razorfish to learn to apply digital communications techniques to business performance improvement. From there, in 2001, I set up digitalTMW and grew that to one of the top 10 digital marketing agencies in the UK. I operated as senior board representative on two Group Company divisional boards as Group Digital Director, as well as the TMW main board. I set up a number of business units including social media and healthcare, and presented at a number of conferences and meetings to investors, healthcare and financial services industries. In 2012, I moved to Digitas Health in order to expand my understanding of major agency networks, and to gain experience of working with European and Global level clients.
