Michael Sloane is a creative leader with over a decade of experience working across some of the world’s most recognisable brands. For him, design is more than visual expression—it’s a tool for connection, clarity, and meaningful change.
His approach to creative direction is rooted in strategic thinking and a deep belief that great design unites ideas and people. Early career challenges shaped his ability to navigate complexity, act decisively, and lead with composure—skills that have become central to his leadership style.
As an Associate Design Manager at PepsiCo, Michael leads global campaigns that are built to resonate—culturally, creatively, and commercially. He brings together cross-functional teams, aligns vision across disciplines, and consistently delivers work that balances emotional intelligence with measurable impact.
With a strong foundation in design leadership and team management, Michael helps brands find clarity in the chaos—translating complex ideas into creative work that connects, inspires, and drives results.
