DIRECTOR
Jade heads up our agency, runs our marketing training platform [bridgED Digital Learning], hosts the Marketing + Margaritas podcast and hates olives (big time, they are just the worst). With over two decades of experience, Jade has been responsible for the development and implementation of marketing, digital media and communications campaigns and solutions for so many industries, she probs lost count long ago. Her entrepreneurial mindset, along with a stubborn determination to be a positive force for change in small business, is why Jade is a sought-after speaker and educator for business, networks and organisations.

STUDIO COORDINATOR
Whether behind the scenes or repping front of house – what Mindy enjoys most about her 10+ years in office administration and accounts is being a fundamental part of making sure a business runs smoothly. While being organised and stepping in wherever needed comes naturally to her, she also enjoys pushing herself into new challenges – and ensuring everyone feels comfortable when they come along for the ride. Taking on managing a creative team is not for the faint-hearted, but this super practical yet highly compassionate woman won us all over right from the start.

WEBSITE DEVELOPER
Rebel’s web developer slash tech boffin – Taren is armed with an erudite mind and a wicked sense of humour. He spends his workdays transforming a business’s digital presence into fully-optimised-expertly-laid-out web perfection, and solving every tech problem under the sun (both for our clients, and for us!). The ultimate all-rounder – he builds websites, writes code, maps out functionality, assembles our office desks and can slow cook a mean butter chicken! Is there anything he cannot do? Like seriously, we're keeping him.

CREATIVE DIRECTOR
Jamie’s clean, classic style is a breath of fresh air – and his chill and positive nature is just icing on the cake. He loves coming up with creative solutions that look exquisite and eye-catching, while making the most of what every brand has to offer. He also somehow manages to make the *non-stop* problem solving required as a creative director look totally easy! Taking a leap out of his comfort zone and flexing his creative brain is what Jamie thrives on, when he can escape from all the furbaby cuddles at home (srsly, so many pets!).

MULTIMEDIA DESIGNER
Josh is our quiet achiever, passionate about all things visual – from storytelling videos to animated presentations to whatever the hell the kids are into these days. Honing his creative chops at Rebel, Josh has grown to become an all-rounder on the design landscape – including being our resident photographer and videographer. We’ve still never seen him angry, and it’s his easygoing nature and level head that make Josh an absolute pleasure to work with. While he doesn’t speak up a lot, when he does – his input is always worth listening to!!

ADMINISTRATION EXECUTIVE
Ara is our virtual Administration Executive, based in the Philippines but connected to us every day. An integral part of our day-to-day operations, we’d be lost without Ara’s super speedy assistance and exceptional work ethic. She might be a mere 5 thousand kms away and have a 2-hour time difference, but Ara’s accounting background and attention to detail make for one savvy and efficient little go getter. Being across every single job that comes through the Rebel doors is no easy feat, but Ara manages to help keep us running like a well-oiled machine.
