Hardhat announces new hires made throughout Melbourne’s lockdown
Hardhat is marking the agency’s growth throughout Melbourne’s extended COVID-19 lockdown, announcing the appointment of five senior staff.
In the newly created role of head of production, Charlotte Wren has joined the agency from BWM Dentsu. Meanwhile, Alice Tschuchnigg took up the role of client services director in April, after a year at White Grey and a year at Saatchi & Saatchi.

Hardhat’s co-founder and managing director, Justin Kabbani, said: “Whilst the start of the COVID period was challenging, our deep digital DNA and UX [user experience] capabilities served us well. From there, we’ve been able to respond to client opportunities and continue building out our broader strategic and creative capabilities. Adding so much talent in such a short period of time has been an awesome accelerator.”
