Oliver Morrison
CEO, Filter
Passionate about technology in business to deliver awesome solutions
I founded Filter in 2016 with Paul Halfpenny, having worked together at my previous and successful digital agency, and a dynamic marcomms agency before that. We understood that the agency landscape was changing yet again and despite being a busy time personally (marriage, child on the way, house moves) we felt we needed to adapt and challenge ourselves to do it again…. but differently.
Our proposition as a business has evolved since our inception, as we’ve become more comfortable in where we add the most value, but at its core Filter is a business that was created to solve digital challenges for all types of organisations, and this remains so today.
It was always less about the marketing and more about exploring the ‘art of the possible’, giving our clients the fluidity to progress towards their visions, and to do this we quite early on settled on the concept of building an elite team of experienced digital practitioners. The digital world can be scary, it’s often technical by nature, fragmented, whilst moving at pace and to truly harness the best of it we wanted a whole company of people engaging on a very real delivery level.
Our values as a business are crucial to how we operate, underpinning our talented team with the best environment for personal and team success. You can read more about our headline values here.
Outside of work I am interested in loads of things – there’s so much to be interested in. I spend as much time as possible with my family, with two young boys there is never a dull moment. I enjoy cooking, am interested in wine/whisky, love watching sports (though not at the expense of family time) and have a passion for a wide range of music.
