David Wilding

As Director of Planning at Twitter UK, David spends his time helping brands, users and organisations to get the most out of the most exciting, weird and wonderful communications tool in the world.


Before joining Twitter David worked in Media Planning. He was Head of planning at PHD for five years, working predominantly on Sainsbury’s, Mondelez and Warner Bros for whom he helped create the The Lego Movie Ad Break and prior to that spent eight years at Mindshare, working predominantly on Nike & ITV. He started his career at Zenith Media in an era his kids describe as "the 19 somethings" having graduated from Liverpool University.


He is co-chair of the Advertising Association's Media Business Course still adjusting to the fact that his beloved Wolverhampton Wanderers are now quite good and thrilled to be spending less time on South Western Railways.
