Aleks Wins Miss Poland - mmmmaybe

Tuesday, October 9th, 2007

It is said that the golden age of sixteenth century Poland was begun with the birth of a perfect child. 500 years later, Aleksandra Pawelek was born in Krakow and the whole country again held hands and prepared themselves for a new golden age to lift Poland out of it’s never-ending economic crisis. But then Michael from FBI Recruitment placed a call and we poached Aleks away to Australia to be our Account Manager. Sorry Poland.

We have a plan

Tony O’HalloranTony O’Halloran has left BBDO Clemenger to join the senior team driving Lowe’s revitalisation in the Australian and international ad market.

Tony joins ECD Dave Johnson and Head of Account Service Joan Lind as the third senior executive we have recently put on.

The move will see a reunion between O’Halloran and Lind, who joined Lowe Hunt from M&C Saatchi last month. The pair worked at M&C Saatchi together for six months from late 2005.

Tony brings to Lowe Hunt 16 years of international and Australian strategic planning experience from both client and agency side. He developed and activated the strategic plan for McDonald’s response to the children’s obesity crisis in the UK, on this £50M account.

He began his career client-side with brand and marketing manager roles for blue chips such as Coca Cola, Kraft Foods, Lion Nathan and Roche.

He rocks!
