I’m looking forward to bringing my digital thinking to the party and helping to create integrated work that connects across all disciplines, driving performance and fame for clients.” He added: “The speed at which consumers have adopted new digital behaviours has been unprecedented and this leap forward has created countless interesting and innovative ways that brands can creatively interact with audiences.”

Dave Price, CCO said: “Dan will bring a fresh perspective to our digital work. He’s a great problem solver and has created some first class award winning campaigns. But most importantly he produces fame-driving work and we’re going to give him the room to do plenty more of that.”
