Who is Mike Collins?

Mike Collins started his marketing journey with a humble meat raffle poster for his family’s country pub. Schnitty nights, happy hours, footy tipping, you name it, young Mike was on the job. But it wasn’t just about schnitzels and schooners. A high school teacher sparked his passion for social justice, and he’s carried that curiosity for ideas, issues, and community impact ever since.

Fast forward to today, Mike is a seasoned marketing and communications leader with 15-20 years of experience in the for-purpose sector, working in Sydney, London, and Newcastle.

Mike uses his expertise and yes, even his ‘white guy-ness’ to amplify others’ voices and drive meaningful change. He works, volunteers, parents, and even sweats for the greater good.

If you’re looking for someone all about people, purpose, and pragmatic progress, Mike’s your guy.

Together, let’s make good happen: Choose Mike for The Pitch.
