David Obawole
I’m a marketer, communicator and salesperson, turning audience insight into campaigns that sell out shows, grow reach and drive revenue.
I’ve spent over ten years working across the UK, UAE and Nigeria in media production, digital marketing, partnerships and sales. At AllClear Travel Insurance I’ve generated over £1.5M in revenue and ranked top 10 nationally. Before that, as Marketing Strategist at It’s My Shout Productions, a scheme backed by BBC Cymru Wales, I led the creator campaign that sold out its 20th anniversary awards at the ICC.
I hold an MSc in Strategic and Digital Marketing and an LLB in Law. These days I’m open to digital marketing and communications roles.
