Wunderman Thompson names associate creative director
Wunderman Thompson has bolstered its creative offering in Melbourne and Sydney offices.
The announcement:
Joining from BBH in Singapore, Stephanie Gwee joined the Melbourne office as associate creative director. In her previous role, she launched global campaigns for brands like Absolut and Nike, and was the global creative lead on Mulberry.
Creative director Joe Hawkins also transferred from Wunderman Thompson Perth to the Sydney office.
Gwee said: “Wunderman Thompson has a strong combination of creativity and innovation, and this foundation can only mean that the agency is poised to continue to grow from strength to strength. So, when the opportunity came knocking, it was an easy decision to move countries to be part of the team. Watch this space.”
João Braga, national chief creative officer at Wunderman Thompson in Australia, said: “At Wunderman Thompson, we’re after progressive thinkers, curious people who are comfortable working at the intersection of creativity, tech and culture. We feel really lucky to have these incredibly talented individuals in our camp. Steph brings in some truly world-class thinking, whereas Joe’s move to Sydney adds heaps to our creative calibre here.
“These two combined with such fresh energy and talent are an amazing booster to our national team and are already pushing the boundaries of our creative offering.”
The Melbourne office also welcomed Adriana Agustin-Radelja, Sarah Fumo and Grace Hurley to the junior creative team. The Sydney office had Dean Shein joining as copywriter.
