Ti CV Phon + Green.jpg

Hi, I’m Tim Holmes. I’m an independent Creative Consultant and Creative Director based in Melbourne, with 20+ years of experience at agencies in Australia, the US, and Canada, helping brands create impactful and compelling work.

My career spans various roles, including Art Director, Head of Art, Writer, Creative Director, and Group Creative Director. I’ve brought to life a wide range of projects, including integrated campaigns (large and small budgets), brand platforms, social media content, AI-first initiatives, bold OOH, brand guidelines, and innovative activations.

I believe that the most effective creative work rewards people by evoking a feeling, whether it's charm, amusement, or bewilderment. This approach has led to recognition at major local and global awards for creativity, craft, and effectiveness.

A strategic and hands-on creative, I bring clarity, curiosity, and a strong work ethic to every project. I also provide creative leadership by running projects, pitches, teams, and productions with calm confidence while maintaining a focus on the creative process.

I’m always interested in hearing from creatively ambitious people and organisations. If you’d like to collaborate, let’s talk.
