Previously, Park was at customer engagement agency TMW Unlimited in London, where he held the roles creative technologist, senior creative technologist and creative technology lead.

Park’s background includes experience in creative coding, systems, tools and solution definition, R&D and prototyping.

R/GA Australia VP managing director, Michael Titshall – who joined the agency in April from CHE Proximity – said Park’s experience makes him the perfect fit for the agency’s ‘leaner’ model.

“Technology is integral to any brand experience, and Ciaran is perfectly placed to help deliver on our strategy of a leaner, modular approach to technology that helps clients innovate and extract more value quickly,” Titshall said.

Park said of his appointment: “To realise true value for our clients and their customers, we need to be able to adapt in an exciting, ever-changing, technical landscape. Pushing the edge of what’s possible and forging real human connections is what R/GA is all about, and I’m ecstatic about joining Michael, Victoria and the team in fulfilling that mission.”

In November, Victoria Curro joined R/GA as Sydney managing director from M&C Saatchi’s customer experience agency LIDA.
