Emma Hill joins The Shannon Company as CD and managing partner

Melbourne based The Shannon Company has appointed former Clemenger BBDO creative director Emma Hill as its creative director and managing partner.

Hill left Clemenger BBDO in 2011 to start her family after 13 and a half years in the role having worked on campaigns including Pure Blonde, Just Jeans, NAB and Dulux.

Hill said: “It’s a chance to create ideas that appeal to people’s sense of self, community and integrity.”

Hill said in a statement: “After 17 years, and then some time away creating an awesome little family, I got to a point in my career where what mattered to me completely changed, and it became a question of what do I really want to be about, what legacy do I want to leave?

“As fun as it was, a traditional agency just didn’t feel like the right fit anymore,” she said.

Ian Forsyth, partner at The Shannon Company, said: “Emma is an amazing talent with an outstanding track record of delivering effective creative campaigns. She brings to the team a new perspective and a boldness in approach.”
