Meet my team of ideas, toiling behind the scenes like Santa’s little helpers. They beaver away quietly in my head, far from the spotlight. They are the secret in our sauce, the unsung heroes behind all our solutions. Here at Hitch & Kin, we are passionate about creative ideas and committed to rehoming them with like-minded people. We have all types of ideas: funny, quirky, practical, cheeky and the occasional big idea. Good ideas don't ask for much. Just a roof over their head under which they can develop and flourish. Maybe yours is the forever home they're looking for.
Gil Bates
The leader of the team and a lover of all things Apple, Gil is a wily operator who survived the 'dot-com' bubble saga with nary a penny lost. Few can match Gil’s cross-platform media smarts when a holistic approach is needed. Favourite song “Smooth Operator” - Sade
Pica Pete
This old timer is a stickler for detail, with dial-up modem patience. For every situation Pica Pete has a yarn about how things were done in his day. He brings old-time practice and craft to our thoroughly modern solutions. Favourite song: “Take It Easy” - The Eagles
MC Squared
MC Squared is the team’s audio expert. A DJ in 90’s Ibiza, MC2 claims his youth was a self-medicated haze but can still name every Eurovision winner since the competition began. Nul points for knowing that piffle. Favourite song: “Firestarter” - Prodigy.
Sparky
The youngest member of the team, with bags of naive, wide-eyed enthusiasm. Always willing to learn, always willing to help. Sparky has plenty of potential, with an ADHD-powered green finger for multi-tasking. Favourite song: “Not Like Us” - Kendrick Lamar
Medulla
Ever had a teacher that nobody messed with, even feared, but you absolutely adored? That’s Medulla, the team’s traffic manager, who keeps production ticking over with military efficiency. She makes sure the team runs with chronograph precision so every project is delivered on time. Favourite song: “Time After Time” - Cyndi Lauper
Ozzy
Once upon a time, art director Ozzy dreamt of glory with a football at his feet, and a run out on the hallowed turf of Wembley. His dreams turned out to be way bigger than his footballing talent, but luckily he still has a knack for juggling deadlines and finding space in a layout. Favourite song: “Alive & Kicking” - Simple Minds
Harvey
Being an account executive demands a rare skillset, one that allows the bearer to have one foot in heroism and the other in pantomime villainy. Harvey does it perfectly, advocating for his clients best interests while managing their expectations and protecting the team. “He’s behind you!” (We love him really). Favourite song: “Friends” - Whodini
Noggin
Noggin is the team’s technical support, able to explain the difference between ROM and RAM without the listener’s eyes glazing over with boredom. An avid fan of random and obscure 70s martial arts cinema, this gregarious introvert pushes the team to consider unexpected solutions. Favourite song: “Computer Love” - Kraftwerk
Eurica
Can you name all 7 members of BTS? Didn’t think so, but our social media queen Eurica certainly can. The simpler days of AOL Messenger and MySpace are well behind us so Eurica guides the team through the wastelands of toxic trolls and hashtag harbingers with Gen Z nonchalance. Favourite song: “Streets” - Doja Cat
