Miles Nathan joins Furlined
Furlined expands its global leadership with the appointment of Miles Nathan as Managing Director, London.
Miles Nathan joins Furlined following a two and a half year stint as partner and Executive Producer at independent studio Spindle.
During his time at Spindle Miles Nathan significantly raised the company’s scale and profile, signing 12 new directors including rapper Loyle Carner and Molly Burdett, who has gone on to win a Glass Lion at this year’s Cannes Lions.
Prior to Spindle Nathan spent ten years as agency producer for creative shops including AMVBBDO, W&K and Mullen Lowe. His work has been recognised by Cannes, D&AD, The British Arrows, Kinsale Sharks and Epica.
Nathan’s appointment underscores Furlined’s continuing commitment to international growth and to the UK market in particular. Nathan will combine his brief to showcase Furlined’s lineup of established names like Speck and Gordon, Martin + Lindsay and Torben Kjelstrup to UK agencies, with the company’s long-recognised commitment to developing the next generation of directing talent.
Miles Nathan on the move: "I am incredibly honoured to be joining the team at Furlined. The legacy of work and incredible directors speaks for itself. I am excited to complement that legacy with finding fresh, culturally led new creative voices. It helps that that Diane McArter is one of the most influential and values-led leaders in the industry. She is the reason I decided to jump into this new adventure. The blend of experienced, top creative talent, combined with a commitment to invest in the development of emerging new voices is what’s truly exciting to me.
Diane McArter adds: “Our London operation was left with a huge hole after the passing of our late MD, Olly Chapman. When I met Miles, I knew he was the right person to build on Olly’s legacy. Miles’ bold creative spirit and his entrepreneurial energy is exactly what we need to take Furlined to new heights.”
