DDB Sydney executive creative director Dylan Harrison is leaving the agency at the end of this week after just over three and a half years to join Filmgraphics Entertainment, with recently appointed DDB chief creative officer Toby Talbot taking over his duties.

Harrison joined the agency in January 2011 after a stint at Saatchi & Saatchi New Zealand.

In a statement he said: “I’m incredibly proud of my time at DDB Sydney. Since joining in 2011, not only did we move from 23rd to top five creatively ranked in the DDB network globally, we did so with record business results. Last year alone was both the best commercial and creative performance in the agency’s history, entering the Gunn Report Top 50 agencies in the world for the first time.
