CX Lavender
Independent agency CX Lavender has added four creatives.
Meg Williams from VCCP Singapore and Luke Ryan from DDB Aotearoa join as senior copywriters.
Michael Orfanos joins as art director after having started his career with The Hallway and Akcelo.
They will report to creative director Claire Austin and creative director Russell Nelson.
Austin said Williams' talent for storytelling, Ryan's strategic mindset and Orfanos' bold visual instincts bring something special to the table.
"Together, they’re not just enhancing our creative output – they’re redefining how we approach ideas for our clients. Their energy and talent are already inspiring the team, and I can’t wait to see the impact they’ll make," Austin said.
In addition, senior designer Mike Cunningham, previously with Bear Meets Eagle on Fire, will enhance the agency’s design and animation capabilities, reporting to design lead Ingrid Spiga.
CX Lavender ECD and Partner Ryan Stubna said the hires are all world-class creative thinkers who bring an even more diverse skill set to the creative department.
“CX Lavender is continually evolving our team structure to stay at the forefront of innovation," Stubna said.
"These new hires, supported by our existing talented team and a strong freelance network, will empower us to deliver fresh, impactful ideas for our clients.”
All four creative hires commenced in November with client work spanning Westpac, Zambrero, Mine Super and BlueScope Steel.
