George Coleman

CEO Current Global

About

George loves telling stories. Big, tall or short. He’s been doing it for more than 25 years for some of the world’s most iconic brands. He started his career as an electronics engineer, but craved a more creative canvas, and made the leap into marketing communications. Following a stint at the BBC, he joined his first agency and the rest, as they say, is LinkedIn profile history.
He founded IPG agency Creation in 2011 and served as global president, before teaming up with Current to form Current Global in 2018. His experience traverses the full spectrum of marketing communications including brand, reputation management, digital/integrated communications policy and government affairs.

Outside of work he’s often found in his vegetable patch or brewing beer. He’s also a film fanatic, collects original cinema posters and has a dog called Sundance.
