Meet the team

Our two founders

Bringing creative vision and strategy to life for sports and brands.

Ollie Emery

FOUNDER & CEO

With over 18 year’s experience in content and communications, Ollie has built award-winning content teams within global sports clubs, rights holders and agencies. Ollie has also consulted for some of the biggest sports names on content strategy and commercialisation of social media content.

“It felt like the perfect time to set up a content studio, with a view to bridging the gap between brands and their sports assets. The disconnect between commercial teams and social gatekeepers can be a real challenge; and is one that we get. Get Up Move Faster is the solution to alleviating that friction – ensuring authentic content that works across sports channels from an entertainment perspective; but also works for partners and sponsors to hit those commercial goals”

Nick Birtwistle

FOUNDING PARTNER and HEAD OF PRODUCTION

Nick has over 20 years of experience across broadcast and digital, running productions and digital teams for a wide range of clients including FIFA, Formula E, National Geographic and the BBC.

Our Creative Board Members

Get Up Move Faster is proud to have a creative board that sits twice a year, reviewing our creative output across all our partners and creating a bi-annual sports content report.
