Best Job In The World adds IAB to awards list, while Samboy is first social media marketing winner

The Tourism Queensland Best Job In The World campaign picked up yet another accolade last night at Australia’s Interactive Advertising Bureau Awards.  

The campaign was named best in show and also won the brand awareness and positioning category. However, in something of a surprise, it was beaten to the new social media marketing category by Pusher’s work on the relaunch of Samboy chips, which included a YouTube competition to promote the snack. Meanwhile, digital agency Soap Creative made the most trips to the stage.

The evening’s event – held at The Ivy in Sydney, was hosted by Adam Spencer.

 The event and awards process underwent a major revamp overseen by new CEO Paul Fisher.
