Hello, I'm Andy Parsons, Art Director, Creative Director and cycling fan.
These things can get a little long and you're probably busy, so I'll keep it brief.
I started off life in advertising in 2010 at VCCP, where I made a lot of fun stuff.
Moved to W+K Amsterdam, where I made more fun stuff.
From there I joined BBH London and made a mix of fun, serious and even life saving stuff.
Then went freelance at Mother and made even MORE fun stuff.
Since then I've collaborated with W+K London, VCCP, Lucky Generals and ITV.
Now in 2024, my latest post was at W+K Shanghai, where I was the Creative Director for Ford China.

I continue to freelance as an Art Director and CD and make fun stuff with the wonderful wordsmith George Lewis.
Beyond advertising I LOVE cycling (watching, riding, chatting), I enjoy brewing my own beer and cheering on the mighty Dulwich Hamlet.

SOME NICE WORDS:
Andy Parsons is a terrific art director and all-round creative. I worked with him for a significant period of time and it was an absolute pleasure.
He has bold and challenging ideas. He knows how to craft them.
He can be left alone on high profile accounts and is beyond diligent and responsible when it comes to delivering all the assets required – from brilliantly developed creative ideas to exhaustive presentation decks – to get an idea over the line.
He is pro-active, constantly coming to me with great ideas off his own back.
And he is a lovely guy to work with – funny, thoughtful, engaging and personable. I can see him fitting well into any team he is put into.
I would have no hesitation in recommending him for a position at a communications agency.
