Introduction to the founder
You work with me directly, not a junior account team.
I'm Rob Oxborough. I founded oXo Creatives in 2013 and run it full-time. Until 2026 I ran it alongside senior in-house marketing roles at Google, PlayStation and King, partner management at Meta, and digital product at NatWest. The person on the first call writes the plan and does the work.
See the workWork I led for Generator Hostels, alongside their agencies, won two Drum Awards and was nominated for a third.
