meeting of minds

Shoal was formed in 2003 by three highly experienced design industry figures, all with a single shared belief…
‘If a job’s worth doing, then it’s worth doing well’.

• Anthony Anderton - Managing Director

  Drawing on his own client-side experience in the pharmaceutical and retail sectors, Anthony keeps us grounded and ensures our work retains a real-world commercial focus. Renowned for his unrelenting tenacity and infectious enthusiasm, Anthony has been developing and managing new business for more than 15 years, working with companies such as Komfort Workspace plc, Fellowes Inc., Heinemann and ICI Dulux.

• Mark Grove - Creative Director

  In more than 25 years spent devoted to design, Mark has accumulated a wealth of experience working on major branding projects for companies including British Gas, Courtaulds, Airtours and John Lewis Partnership. Before co-founding Shoal, Mark cut his design teeth in London at King & Associates; held senior agency roles at Coley Porter Bell and Lloyd Northover; and spent over two years in Hong Kong working as a design director for Landor Associates.

• Paul Sheene - Design Director

  Combining outstanding creative flair and technical skills, Paul ensures that the quality of our design and artwork output consistently meets our exacting standards. When the pressure’s mounting and the clock is ticking, his job is to ensure that we get it right first time. During his 20-plus years in the industry, Paul has worked on virtually every type of design project imaginable, for clients including Emirates Holidays, Rank Organisation, Toyota and Virgin Holidays.
