CLEMS WELLINGTON SNARES PAUL NAGY FROM BURNETT SYDNEY


Leo Burnett Sydney creative Paul Nagy is joining Clemenger BBDO Wellington from July.
Nagy will take the role of Head of Copy and work alongside Deputy Creative Director Mark Harricks.
Nagy has won a string of advertising awards and is a past winner of the Australian Young Writer of the Year award for his horror novel The Mind’s Eye.
Clemenger BBDO Wellington CEO Philip Andrew says Nagy is a world-class creative talent.
“Paul’s brilliant. He has a deep strategic approach and a highly original creative brain. His job title - Head of Copy - reflects the deep respect we have for the writer’s craft. Paul will work across our client list, and through every medium we’re working in.”
Says Nagy: “It’s a fantastic environment to be going into. The integrated approach at Clemenger BBDO is the way of the future and the client list is blue chip. The work Clemenger Wellington produces is world class, and the fly fishing in New Zealand is not bad either.”

He'd have to be whacky to go to Wellington.

"Head of Copy"? Working alongside "Deputy Creative Director"?

Sounds like an important job ... but exactly how many teams does Clemenger Wellington (a city of less than 200,000 people) employ?

3 or 4 at Clems I think. 1 at Saatchis. And that's it.

guess the 'string of awards' weren't in the last 2 years. CB ranking 2005 - none. 2006 - 362.

Isn't the size of the city irrelevant? Or do you think that big clients like LTNZ, ACC, Mainland, Panasonic and the National bank only advertise in wellington? What a stupid thing to say...

Clemenger is one of the best agencies in the country. Tight lines to you Paul.

HEAD OF COPY?
Jesus, Paul is a great bloke but in terms of his work, a young senior at best.
Yeah, it will certianly be interestsing to get the full story in Srinath Mogeri. He's a good bloke too. Maybe they've got too many of them over there in Wellington per capita.
