Independent creative agency Elevencom has named Chris Johnson creative director.
He will be working with Elevencom’s founders, Ryan Fallowfield and Jono McCauley, to strengthen creative output, with a particular focus on digital and social.
Johnson brings a wealth of experience from agencies including TBWA, Dentsu and Havas.
He is joined in Elevencom’s expanded creative department by senior art director Amy Sibraa; designer Kathryn Hamel; and Tim Arrowsmith, who makes a return to the agency as Senior Writer.
The agency has also boosted its account service team with the appointment of senior account director Feli-Vila Sanchez, who will work alongside Elevencom’s founding director of operations, John McLachlan.
McLachlan said 2023 has been a transformative year for the business, which recently extended its office space and celebrated its 15th birthday.
“In a tough market, it’s very satisfying to be bringing new business and new people into our agency. It’s also great to be welcoming back some familiar faces,” McLachlan said.
“It doesn’t seem so long ago that Ryan, Jono and I set the business up on our kitchen tables with the goal of offering all the good stuff of a big agency with none of the bad stuff.”
“And here we are, 15 years later, surrounded by fantastic people and fantastic clients, still delivering on that promise.”
