Enigma taps former Havas and The Monkeys execs for new senior roles

Full-service indie agency Enigma has announced two key appointments to its senior leadership team.

Former The Monkeys and Emotive staffer Ciaran Miller-Stubbs joins Enigma as its new executive director, while Havas creative Matt Ennis has been appointed as its new creative director.

In the newly created roles, Miller-Stubbs will lead the agency’s Sydney team, while Ennis will work on creative across the agency from the company’s Newcastle office.

Miller-Stubbs comes from Emotive, where he was the Client Services Director, and before this spent six years at The Monkeys, leading MLA’s Lamb and Beef accounts, as well as Canadian Club, Jim Beam, and Amazon.

Ennis comes to Enigma from Havas Host Australia, where he worked Air New Zealand’s Bring on Winter campaign, was instrumental in launching a new global tourism platform for Fiji, and even listed one of the Neighbours’ houses on Booking.com to promote the show’s finale.

“We are really pleased to have attracted talent like Ciaran and Matt to Enigma,” Enigma managing director, Jack Mason, said.

“Both men have led stellar careers, receiving accolades and industry kudos for their efforts. Their appointments bring significant expertise to our team, bolstering our management, while also deepening our client offering.”

Commenting on his appointment, Miller-Stubbs said: “I’m thrilled to have joined Enigma. The passion of the team and their ambitious goals had me sold from our first chat. There’s so much potential in Enigma’s full-service model, and being a true independent brings a real point of difference to the market. I’m stoked to be shaping things for the agency and our clients.”

Ennis added: “I’m really excited to be part of Enigma, given its status as a genuine full-service independent. Their broad capabilities create an interesting creative sandbox that makes it a great place for groundbreaking work to flourish. I can’t wait to add my own expertise and ideas into the mix for our clients.”

Both appointments are effective immediately.
