A little bit about our story
Back in 2015, our own curiosity took hold and the idea for Beyond Curious was born. To run an agile agency, with a ton of experience and none of the big agency layers. One that broke the traditional mould of how we should work, embracing instead a more flexible approach whilst compromising nothing in terms of creativity, service levels and results.
Under the direction of Richard, Sean and Anna, our core remains deliberately small and we scale up and down on a job-by-job basis. This allows us to bring together the right skills and personalities at any one time. From photographers to event managers, we have a trusted network of suppliers that work as a seamless extension of our team.
This underpins our ethos of collaboration and relationship building, delivering the best results for us and more importantly, our clients.

Anna Watts
Account Director
Starting her career client-side in marketing roles, Anna knows what it’s like to be in your shoes. Briefings, budgets and deadlines aside, she appreciates how the best work and results come from great relationships and excellent communication. So much so that based on her own experiences, and a growing curiosity in the creative process and how agency’s function, she chose to swap sides and never looked back.
These days she’s driven by building those same great relationships with her own clients. She enjoys working closely with them as an extension of their teams on strategy and planning, all whilst ensuring we’re not missing a beat getting work through the studio. She’s the person who spots the typo on the menu, loves simple yet bold typographic art and will never say no to a black americano.

Sean Pereira
Creative and New Business Director
Sean’s our creative big thinker, with a passion for conceiving and presenting beautiful ideas and the strategy to back them up. With 20 years of Art and Creative Direction behind him, Sean has generated concepts for all kinds of clients including Smirnoff, Buxton Water, BP, SEAT, Bridgestone, NSPCC, Cuervo Tequila, Sky, Vodafone, Mercedes-Benz, Jeep, Chrysler and Disney.
He's happiest when being as creative as possible whether it’s a painting, illustrating in a sketch book, generating concepts for clients, or playing a newly made-up game with his nine-year-old son.
He believes great ideas can make you smile and be indestructible all at the same time.

“I have been using Beyond Curious for many years at Bridgestone. In that time they have shown passion and creativity at any and every brief pitched at them; from brand requests that need to be turned around quickly, to full 12 month internal engagement programs.
They have made it their business to develop a deep understanding of the Bridgestone brand, and I have implicit trust that they will deliver every project they undertake.”

Really professional and a pleasure to work with.”
