M&C Saatchi boosts creative department with seven new creative appointments

M&C Saatchi has strengthened its creative team with seven key appointments across its Australian offices.

Stephanie Allen and Andrew Torrisi have joined as creative directors from DDB Sydney, while Hannah Melanson takes on the role of creative director following nearly two years at Innocean. Relocating from London, Christopher McKee has joined M&C Saatchi Melbourne as a creative director.

After five years at the agency, Daniel Borghesi has been promoted to creative director. Borghesi was part of the creative team that worked on the highly-awarded ‘The Plastic Forecast’ campaign for Minderoo Foundation.

Rounding out the hires are senior creative Bryce Waters, who joins from VML and copywriter Amy Morrison, who joins from DDB Sydney.

These appointments mark a strong start to the year for M&C Saatchi as the agency prepares to unveil its new “Cultural Power” global positioning in March.
