New joint ECDs for TBWA\Hunt\Lascaris

10 Jan 2012

Matthew Brink and Adam Livesey will join TBWA\Hunt\Lascaris as joint executive creative directors on 23 January 2012, replacing Damon Stapleton. Both are currently working in New York at international agency, BBDO, where they have been for the past three years.

Brink, a copywriter and Livesey, an art director, have previously made their mark on a number of leading agencies locally and abroad. They have achieved numerous international and local awards, including nine Cannes Lions and a number of One Show, Clios and D&AD Awards. They have also had the opportunity to work on brands such as AT&T; Home Box Office (HBO); MTN; Mercedes Benz; McDonalds and Fedex.

Says TBWA\Hunt\Lascaris group MD Ivan Moroke, "We are thrilled to have them return to South Africa to take up these significant positions within the agency. We look forward to the energy and insight that they will bring as we head into our next creative chapter.

"There is an old saying that two heads are better than one and in the case of Matt and Adam we find this wholly appropriate," Moroke tells Bizcommunity.com. "Working together as a team for over 10 years, we have watched their careers both in SA and abroad go from strength to strength as they have been the drivers behind some of the most memorable campaigns."

"Together they are a force to be reckoned with - not only will they add depth, they will also bring a wholly new perspective to the agency in their role of joint ECDs."
