303 MullenLowe lures Aussie expat creative team Nick Sellars and Katie Moore back from L.A.
303 MullenLowe Sydney has appointed Nick Sellars and Katie Moore to bolster its creative offering, joining from a three-year stint at Los Angeles based, 160over90 – an Endeavor company.
The awarded Aussie duo will work on a range of 303 MullenLowe’s clients including Budget Direct, Audi, Harley Davidson, Cancer Institute and Citi.
Says Bart Pawlak, executive creative director, 303 MullenLowe Sydney: “We’re so excited to welcome Nick and Katie. Their style of thinking feels genuinely unique and represents our ambition to be surrounded by the best talent, as we hone our product and write the next chapter of the 303 story. Apart from their experience and many accomplishments, they’re just a lovely pair who will be a great addition to our 303 family. We can’t wait to see what they bring to our clients, the work and our culture.”
Moore and Sellars created highly visible campaigns during their time at 160over90 Los Angeles including a revival of the iconic, Bud Light ‘Real Men of Genius’ campaign, launching the first-ever, plant-based LA Dodger Dog with Roy Choi and Shepard Fairey’s design agency SN1, and most recently, Little Caesars latest spot for the very first, Planteroni Pizza.
Prior to their stint in Los Angeles, Sellars and Moore plied their craft at numerous Aussie agencies including BMF, Host and Patts Y&R Melbourne.
They have joined 303 MullenLowe Sydney to expand the agency’s creative offering while driving the kind of integrated product that 303 MullenLowe’s mix of creativity, strategy, media, data science and tech is known for.
Says Sellars and Moore: “Our time in the US changed the way we think about creativity and culture. We’re stoked to be able to bring this experience back to the Aussie market.
“We’re absolutely thrilled to join such an incredibly lovely group of humans at 303. This was a key factor of our move as we not only look forward to the exciting momentum at the agency, but we begin to tackle the hardest brief of our lives – having a baby.”

Every agency wants Moore Sellars!
Out with the old, in with the new. Good luck working at this agency.
I thought they lost Audi and Harley Davidson?
Lured and awarded. My favorite term for ‘they searched for months and one has an award from 2008’
Did someone leave? This agency is on its last legs so I give it 6 months.
Such bitterness in the local industry. Must be a treat to come back to. Welcome Katie and Nick. Nice, smart people. Will do well.
great to see good talented people back
good to have you back
Audi and Harley Davidson definitely still clients – and happy clients! Lots of new business wins. ‘What The’ clearly out of the loop
Finally some senior creatives at this agency who actually know how to win awards. We know who hasn’t.
Don’t the Monkeys do the Audi brand creative now? or am I out of the loop. HaHaHa. With regards to new business, yep name them?
Good talented people, congrats!
you just doubled the size of your creative department in a single hire.
Actually, HQ in Germany now does ‘brand’. 303 does the rest.
Don’t sell them short. They know how to win more than that. Now, back to your award winning oh awarded one.
Great news for Katie, Nick and 303!
Great move Katie and Nick!
Great hire 303!
Welcome back Nick!
Congratulations Nick and Katie, good to see some great talent return to home soil
A summary of everything that’s wrong with the local industry. Welcome home Katie and Nick! Great duo.
Congrats Nick and Katie! Great to have you back in Sydney. Keeping my eyes peeled here
Congrats Katie and Nick. Good luck, you’ll smash it init
Welcome back Sellars!!!!!!!!
Welcome back to Oz guys! And, take heart, contrary to what this forum often suggests, it’s not all an industry of unfulfilled haters and their enablers. You guys will all do superbly!
Awesome news, Nick and Katie. Welcome back and congrats!
They come and steal Audi from us and now they sink! Karma a b1tch at 300km/hr
Don’t think they’re sinking, despite all the wishful thinking. And from memory 303 just picked up a loose ball. Probably time to let go, in any case…
Best of luck Nich. Hopefully, the Oz industry isn’t this toxic! I may never want to come back.
With this agency its called Karma!
