Toaster, creative product marketing agency, appoints Neville Brody as Creative Chair

Toaster, the creative product marketing agency, has appointed Neville Brody as Creative Chair.

Brody is one of the world’s most influential designers, typographers and creative thinkers. His career spans more than four decades at the forefront of visual culture, with his work for the likes of The Face, Channel 4, Nike and Kenzo repeatedly challenging the prevailing visual conventions of its time.

Brody has made the transition from Brody Associates to join Toaster, which is built on an agile, scalable, adaptable and responsive model.

Here, he also aims to build a focus around setting up a lab space, exploring the potential of the overlap between creative and tech, human and machine, leaning into Toaster's powerful AI Studio resource.

At Toaster, Brody will also work across new and existing client relationships, bringing his expertise in building distinctive brands together with the agency’s suite of creative and production services.

Brody takes up his role as Toaster expands its suite of services with the launch of Toaster AI Studio which opened early in 2026, and works to pair brands with the team and tools they need to launch products at scale and pace, always with a creativity-first approach. 

Tom Dunn, founder and CEO of Toaster, said: 

"Our clients come to us because they want their products to mean something to people. Neville has been answering that same question for brands for four decades. 

"Bringing that level of brand craft into Toaster alongside our creative, content and AI production capability gives them access to something that, for product-led brands navigating the AI era, has never been more necessary."

Brody added: “This is about ensuring that brand thinking is present from the beginning: shaping the idea, the experience and the way a product connects with people, rather than being added at the end.

“AI is inevitable. How we choose to manage, use and unlock it will help define how business, society and culture evolve. It can accelerate highly complex and repetitive processes, but when it works by averaging what already exists, it also risks creating a spiral of homogenisation.”

Toaster's mission 

Founded in 2010 by former Google creatives, Toaster’s mission is to humanise world-changing brands and tech for clients including Google, Netflix, Snap Inc, YouTube and Prime Video. It has offices in the UK, US and India. 

Toaster AI Studio becomes the third of the agency’s suite of services, alongside Toaster Brand, and Toaster Creative. Toaster Labs will  launch with Neville’s arrival.  Collectively the four form a connected ecosystem strategically designed for innovation, creativity and scale.
