Josh Locke

My career began as a hopeful filmmaker, inspired by Peter Jackson’s Lord of the Rings. After three years of university, I realised I far preferred watching films to actually making them. That was an expensive epiphany but fortunately I was able to use the digital skills I’d acquired to journey into the realm of marketing.

My Hobbit-like hunger to grow my marketing knowledge took me on an adventure to become a strong all-rounder, working on digital and traditional marketing campaigns in-house and for agencies. I developed a love for marketing strategy (my precious), and stepped into marketing management roles.

Away from work, I love spending time with my family, watching my daughter grow up and subtly shaping her into my very own minion of terror has been the highlight of my life.

I enjoy going on hikes in the Peak District, walking until I find a pub is a good motivation to get my daily steps in.

Contradicting the common Hollywood stereotype of being either sporty or nerdy, I’m a rare hybrid. Football is part of my DNA, I love playing or watching, but I also adore fantasy fiction, be that games, books or films.

Developing and executing the marketing strategy for Harrison Carloss is my bread and butter. It’s my job to bring in new clients and make existing clients aware of how they can take advantage of our full range of services. While I don’t work with clients day-to-day, my role requires me to understand their problems and what they need to achieve growth, helping me tailor our marketing and improve the ROI of the agency’s advertising.
