Damian Cox, the global CEO of Wildstone, began his career after forgoing university to ski and returned to London seeking employment. He credits his entrepreneurial mindset to his unique educational background, where practical skills were prioritized. Starting in a start-up, Cox experienced rapid company growth but left due to compensation issues, leading him to co-found his own venture. Wildstone now operates nearly 5,500 billboards across various territories, showcasing Cox’s success in building a significant player in the advertising space despite initial challenges.
As a result, I think we all became quite entrepreneurial.
I was the worst paid person in the company.
There must be a direct correlation between the fact that we learned nothing, other than how to look after ourselves.
Growing up alongside a single mother and three sisters, Cox asked a recruitment friend for any upcoming vacancies.
