Andrew Little, CEO at DDB Group Australia, said in a statement: ““Nic has led the Sydney DDB team to fantastic growth this year with big wins like Virgin Australia and the consolidation of McDonald’s.

“Nic is such a wonderful person. She is sharp as a tack but one of the most down to earth people I know. This is a very popular appointment across our Group in Australia.”

In June, DDB won the Virgin Australia creative account.

Speaking of her promotion Taylor said the diverse and inclusive agency culture has helped the team create better work and secure new business.

“DDB’s people, in addition to being ‘talented and nice’ as Bill Bernbach said, really are the difference. I love working with such exceptional people, and I’m excited for DDB Sydney’s future,” Taylor said in a statement.
