About Jais Holm Skylvad
Jais comes from a background in the Danish advertising and film industry – as a creative producer, digital creative & strategist. His passion for digital media is centered around the user – bridging business demands with user expectations and market trends, intertwining creative and marketing. Jais is particularly passionate about creative culture and digital communication.
At The LEGO Group, Jais spent nearly seven years championing an audience-first approach, working across mobile production and later as Creative Manager, developing concepts, strategies, and creative direction that helped shape the future of play for the brand.
In 2018, Jais joined Arla Foods to help build The Barn, the company's newly founded in-house creative agency. Over the past seven years, he has grown the agency from a small team of six to 145 people across 10 locations, supporting more than 60 brands in even more markets. Now CCO & Global Head of Creative Studios & Content, Jais leads with a people-first philosophy — building diverse, high-performing creative teams and fostering collaboration across disciplines and geographies. He's especially focused on how creativity is consumed across channels, bridging media, data, and creativity so ideas don't just look good, but genuinely connect with real people in real moments.
