David Atkinson

David is founding partner of Space and has nearly 20 years of agency experience to draw on. His career started with a brief spell at Cadbury’s, before moving agency-side to FKB Carlson to work with Mercury One-2-One and Apple among others.

Then at IMC, David worked on more big brands – Express Newspapers, Bass, Channel 4, Disneyland Paris – and took on a Head of Sport role, before joining Billington Cartmell. At BCL, he headed up award-winning campaigns for Carlsberg, Unilever, GSK and Coca Cola.

It was only a matter of time before putting these skills and a family history of entrepreneurialism into Space. As well as this alented business brain, David is a proud family man with a flair for Music.
From keyboard to Guitar Hero and his son’s ukelele, this guy thinks he could be a contender. Oh, and he appeared in a T’Pau music video in 1987, ask him nicely and he’ll still refuse to find it on YouTube.
