Creative technology company Splash Worldwide has added Andrew Starling and Beth Axworthy to drive global business development and coordinated marketing initiatives across the company’s seven offices. Both based in Splash’s flagship London office and reporting to CEO Paul Stonebridge, Starling will serve as global business development and marketing director with Axworthy serving as global business development and marketing manager. 

Starling and Axworthy both spent the past five years at Hogarth where they established its global business development department and played a key role in driving the company’s strong annual growth. Prior to Hogarth, Starling spent eight years working in business development at BBC Worldwide; he also has extensive experience with management consulting in the media sector, both in London and New York. Axworthy, prior to her tenure at Hogarth, specialized in business development and marketing for the pharmaceutical and clinical research industry. Both bring a proven track record of success with building sustainable growth, managing and integrating global teams, and a high level of industry expertise.

“Splash has differentiated itself in the market by focusing on building an impressive technology component supporting creative production, asset management, and delivery,” said Starling. “The robust tech capabilities already in place, flexible nature of being an independent company, a proven track record with some of the world’s leading companies, and Splash’s end-to-end production offering are a powerhouse combination. Beth and I are looking forward to telling the Splash story more widely and supporting Splash’s long-term success.”

Splash maintains offices in London, New York, Los Angeles, Portland, Amsterdam, Dubai, and Singapore.
