Fearless. Truthful. Unexpected.

Ben combines his Managing Partner duties with a keen interest in the agency’s strategic thinking. He is a great believer that consumer-led insight is the key to unlocking standout work for clients. As a result, every piece of work produced by Keko London is informed by these insights, applied with a real-world sensitivity.

Ben’s career started at international consulting firm Foolproof working with clients in NYC, Vancouver, Hong Kong, Shanghai and Paris – which also gave him a global perspective on HNWIs. A move to JWT, the home of planning, saw him build global advertising strategies for Nokia, HSBC and Shell. His subsequent role at Imagination gave him valuable experience in the world of branding and design, before he set up Keko London in 2013.

When he’s not thinking about work, Ben is thinking (very occasionally) about keeping fit.

Brigitte founded Keko London in 2013, with Bentley as its inaugural client, and still believes strongly in helping to guide the company from her Frankfurt HQ. A Masters Degree in Business Administration has given her a career-long fascination with marketing and strategic consulting.

She worked at TBWA Frankfurt, Lowe & Partners and Michael Conrad, before becoming a member of the board at Leo Burnett. In 2001, Brigitte joined the Klaus E. Küster advertising agency as Managing Director. She became owner of the agency in 2009 – renaming it Kemper Kommunikation. Porsche AG was the main client. Others include: Porsche Design, Merck Millipore, Schüco, MHP Consulting, Telis Finanz, Heraeus, Bosch, UKM, GS1, Brose, Würth, VDMA and Claas. In 2011, she founded Keko Singapore for Porsche Asia Pacific, before opening the Keko London office.

Brigitte would love to have some hobbies, she’s just too busy.
