CX agency GHO has appointed the former CHE Proximity group creative director Hamish Stewart as experience strategy director.

Prior to his time at CHE Proximity, Stewart worked as executive creative director at R/GA Sydney and group creative director at M&C Saatchi Sydney.

“There’s a real momentum at GHO, so I couldn’t be more thrilled to be joining the team," Stewart says on his appointment.

"The way they think - independent, collaborative and customer-centred - is a great fit. The agency’s mantra is ‘work with people you like’; I’m excited to be doing just that.”

Throughout his career, he has been awarded multiple local and global awards, including four Cannes Lions and Gold at One Show in 2019 for NRMA Safety Hub via CHE Proximity.

He was also 2019’s Chair of Judges for Digital at AWARD, and a mentor for ‘Remarkable’, Australia’s first accelerator for early-stage startups creating technology to positively impact life for people living with a disability.

“We believe that all strategy must have creativity at its core. And as a creative with a strong strategic mind, Hamish is the perfect embodiment of that idea," GHO managing director Eithne McSwiney says.

“His impact is already being felt within the business, and we’re incredibly excited to have someone of his calibre joining the team. He’s the real deal.”
