Australia – Clemenger BBDO, a creative communications agency, has welcomed four new talents to boost its strategy team.
Jon Turton has been named experience strategy director, Vanessa Quincey as senior strategy director, Maya Mausli as head of product, and Brooke Thompson as head of strategy.
Before his post at Clemenger, Turton held the strategy director position at AKQA and consumer insights manager at MYER. His expertise is in enhancing customer experience.
Quincey will work on brand and social strategy for Clemenger’s clients after being the senior strategy director at VaynerMedia and senior strategist at Grey Group.
Having worked with Samsung Australia and McCann Worldgroup among others, Mausli will leverage her skills to develop products and services in her new role at Clemenger.
Meanwhile, Thompson will spearhead the planning and execution of marketing strategies for Clemenger’s clients. Thompson was previously the strategy director at whiteGREY and Mindshare.
Clemenger BBDO chief strategy and experience officer Simon Wassef commented, “Clems has a long history of reframing businesses, behaviours and culture. Now, we are reframing strategy for a new era in culture, marketing, experience and technology with these world-class talents. A company with Clems’ ambition needs strategists of this calibre.”
“Ness is a gun whose grasp of how to build brands in culture is exactly what we need. Maya’s ability to solve really hard business problems is prodigious. JT enables us to drive our renowned brand thinking throughout the customer experience. Brooke’s insight and empathy make her an incredible head of strategy. I’m stoked to round out the strategy department with these legends alongside behavioural scientist Helena Duniec, brand strategist Cecilia Hund and head of cultural design, Rhian Mason,” Wassef added.
