    Quentin is what you get when you cross creative genius with a verging on unhealthy obsession with tech. Part man, part geek, it’s no surprise he’s known by all as just Q. He’s responsible for all (well most) of the cool and digital that comes out of Bright Blue Day. And that’s a lot!

    Beefy Bovril

    Whilst being able to call on over 20 years’ experience it is David’s spookily instinctive understanding of how brands and consumers tick that sets him apart. A seemingly effortless ability to drive elegant yet practical solutions is central to BBD delivering great work, every time. More importantly he brings Ed the dog with him every day, without whom life at BBD would just not be the same (albeit slightly less malodorous at times).
