by Phoebe Kearney | Aug 20, 2025

At KORE, our success is built on the people behind the company. In this edition of our People Behind KORE series, we’re excited to introduce you to Brian Flax, our Marketing & Technology Director, who has been with KORE for more than 12 years.

About Brian

Outside of work, Brian is passionate about travel, music, and learning to play instruments. He’s also a self-described tech enthusiast with a love for sports, especially baseball and ice hockey.

Career Journey

Brian holds a Master’s Degree in Education Technology, a Bachelor’s Degree in Entertainment Business, and an Associate’s Degree in Audio Production. His educational journey took him to Full Sail University in Orlando, Florida, where he thrived in a hands-on, practical environment.

“I was never a textbook student,” Brian explains, “Full Sail gave me the chance to learn through doing from 24-hour labs, to time in recording studios working with bands and artists. It was an experience I’ll never forget.”

Life at KORE

Brian oversees the marketing department for the KORE Group, working closely with a team on a wide range of marketing and sales initiatives. More recently, he has also taken on the role of Technology Director, leading KORE’s digital transformation projects across the organisation. His days are a mix of strategy, project management, and hands-on delivery; a combination that keeps the role versatile and engaging.

“I thoroughly enjoy the people I work with, both within the department and across the wider business. They’ve made coming to work a pleasure and not a chore,” Brian says.

Key Achievements

In his time at KORE, Brian has been at the heart of many impactful projects, including:

  • Branding the KORE Retrofit offices and project managing the rollout a rewarding experience to see come to life.
  • Developing new product packaging, ensuring KORE’s products carry a strong, recognisable identity nationwide.
  • Building the original KORE Insulation website and guiding its evolution through multiple iterations as the company has grown.

Brian also takes pride in the growth of the marketing team, celebrating both the team’s individual accomplishments and their collective achievements.

Looking Ahead

For Brian, the mission at KORE is clear:

“To provide innovative products and services that empower and enable the adoption of modern methods of construction, minimise carbon emissions, and deliver a more sustainable future for generations.”

He believes that what KORE does today will have a direct and lasting impact on future generations and that the company has a responsibility to help drive positive change in the construction industry.

Brian’s inspiration comes from the people around him:

“I’m lucky to work with such genuine and like-minded people that I don’t have to look far for inspiration. I’m surrounded by it both at work and at home.”

A Personal Reflection

Looking back, Brian is grateful for the opportunity to build his career with KORE and to raise his family where they’ve planted roots.

“The decision to work at KORE has had such a big impact on my life personally and professionally. I’m grateful for the opportunity to grow my career and to help others do the same. I’ve worked in different industries and roles before, but the experience here has been night and day.”

Brian also gives a special thank you to Caroline & Noel Brady, and the wider family for supporting him, especially during the years he worked remotely long before it became the norm.
