Paul Mellor is the Master of Decibels (MD) at Mellor&Smith

He is a self-confessed certified pain-in-the-ass asker of difficult questions and creator of advertising that makes brands famous. 

Paul's primary role in life is the direct opposite of a hostage negotiator – convincing people to take risks. He started the Ad Agency Mellor&Smith in 2009 amid the banking crisis and has been making sensible decisions ever since. 

He is the founder of London's biggest creative event series #takefuckingrisks, co-author of 'The Bland Book,' partner at Series A, and has recently received 4 BAFTA nominations for his film "Boiling Point."
