Who is Mike Collins?
Mike’s marketing career began as a teenager in his family’s country pub, where a homemade meat raffle poster sparked his love of connecting people through ideas and inspiring them to take action.
Now a seasoned marketing and communications leader with more than 15 years’ experience across Sydney, London, and Newcastle, Mike’s happiest when he’s knee-deep in brand strategy or leading campaigns that make a real difference. His work recently earned him the 2025 Brand Revitalisation Award at the Australian Marketing Institute Awards.
Mike's expertise includes:
-
Team leadership and coaching
-
Marketing and communications strategy
-
PR, media and professional communications
-
Digital marketing and brand management
-
Stakeholder collaboration and paid media
-
Campaign delivery and performance analysis
-
Market research and internal communications
Mike is currently studying at RMIT, exploring how to embed artificial intelligence into marketing strategy and implementation to help organisations work smarter, faster, and more human.
He uses his skills and experience to amplify others’ voices and drive meaningful change. He works, volunteers, parents, and even sweats for the greater good.
Outside work, you’ll find Mike running, gardening, or hanging with his partner Sarah, son Morris, cats Burrito and Taco, and dog Kuma in Newcastle.
If you’re looking for someone driven by people, purpose, and pragmatic progress, Mike’s your guy.
Together, let’s make good happen.
