Sam Bessell, solutionist.
Welcome to my digital CV & Portfolio.
I am an industry tested and recognised strategist with a passion for finding simple solutions to complex problems.
I believe advertising can benefit and improve individual lives by engaging consumers with the brands they need. I want to be an active driver in changing the way advertising benefits society.

I am a 23 y/o Strategist at Australia’s largest independent media agency, Atomic 212°. Previously, I’ve worked as a Junior Data Analyst and Researcher at Australia’s largest independent advertising agency, Big Red. And have graduated with a Bachelor of Communications (Advertising) from RMIT.
My work
I have been shortlisted for Cannes Future Lions (2020) and Cannes Young Lions (2022).
Past projects
Alongside eight teammates, I planned, organised and hosted Australia’s premier networking event for the communication’s industry, Pitch Night.
Music
Outside of advertising, I play bass and guitar in a garage band. I also draw and design album art.
