Patrick
Founder & CEO
Patrick is the Founder and Managing Director of Terrier Agency and Bark Social, with over a decade of experience building brands and driving online revenue through SEO, influencer outreach, social media, and digital marketing.
Patrick founded Terrier Agency in 2015 with a clear mission: to help brands across recruitment, FMCG, retail, and other sectors grow their digital presence and deliver measurable results. In 2020, he launched Bark Social to meet growing client demand for influencer marketing — identifying and activating micro-influencers on behalf of brands, with a sharp focus on tracking every story, post, comment, like, and view to demonstrate clear return on investment.
Before founding Terrier, Patrick honed his strategic and digital expertise at leading agencies. As Head of Strategy at The Gate Films, he worked with brands including Missguided, The University of Manchester, and The Independent — integrating communications across offline and online channels. Prior to that, he spent nearly four years at CheethamBell JWT in Manchester, progressing from Digital Account Executive to Senior Digital Strategist, working across clients such as PriceRunner, Baxters, Total Fitness, and Taste Inc.
Patrick holds a Master of Science in Film Studies from the University of Edinburgh and a Bachelor of Science in Multimedia from Dublin City University. His combination of strategic vision, technical fluency, and entrepreneurial drive has shaped Terrier Agency and Bark Social into the results-focused agencies they are today.
