Creative Strategist | Mentor

Benn Price is a creative strategist and founder of Staff Design Co., on a mission to elevate meaningful brands and empower the next wave of creative talent. Born of punk DIY, artistic roots to leading high-performing teams at an international level and a career spanning design, media, marketing, and leadership, Benn brings depth, drive, and a distinctly human approach to everything he does.

With nearly 30 years in the creative industries, Benn Price brings a rare mix of hands-on experience, strategic vision, and a punk-spirited passion for creative culture. His journey began in fine art and illustration before shifting into graphic design - a pivot that sparked a dynamic career spanning editorial design, media production, marketing, and business strategy.

Benn’s leadership legacy includes a decade as Head of Marketing & Creative Design at a global non-profit, where he steered multi-brand growth, built high-performing teams, and led major digital transformations. From guerrilla marketing campaigns in indie music to overseeing multimillion-pound fundraising drives, Benn has consistently delivered impact across commercial, creative, and charitable sectors.

A first-class Business Marketing Management graduate, Benn has also led engagement strategies in higher education, driving student wellbeing and retention through systems-thinking and community-building initiatives.

In 2020, he founded Staff Design Co., a creative consultancy rooted in Stoke-on-Trent’s rich creative heritage. His mission? To deliver top-tier design, strategy, and mentoring—particularly for bold, missional organisations and emerging creatives ready to break the mould.

Benn’s ethos is simple: work collaboratively, communicate clearly, and never underestimate the power of good ideas and great people. He thrives on switching gears, solving problems, and helping others discover their creative confidence - because real innovation doesn’t just live in big cities or big budgets; it starts with vision, grit, and heart.
