Mick Soiza is a performance-led commercial director working between Australia and the UK. UK-born, he holds dual British and Australian citizenship.
His work is grounded in human behaviour, drawn to the small shifts in feeling, tension and connection that shape how we move through the world.

He collaborates closely with agencies and clients to shape tone with clarity and intent, working across premium brand campaigns, sport, automotive and culturally nuanced storytelling.
