Former R/GA and Holler creative Tim Buesing is to join Publicis Mojo as digital creative director.
Buesing, who joins in January 2011, will report to co-chairman and regional CCO Mojo, Craig Davis. Before his appointment, Buesing worked at Holler.
He has 15 years of digital design and advertising experience in five different countries, including stints at Razorfish and BBDO. He has worked on award-winning campaigns for BMW, adidas and Lion Nathan.
Publicis Mojo Australia and New Zealand co-chairman and chief creative officer Craig Davis told AdNews that Buesing's appointment marks a more "integrated and interconnected" offering from the agency.
Buesing will be based out of the Sydney office and will be involved with all major projects.
"Collaborating with Mojo on a number of Lion Nathan’s projects showed me how multi-faceted and creative their approach is," said Buesing. "It’s consistent with my own goal to produce work for big brands that positively affects, entertains and engages people. I like to look beyond immediate campaign goals and open brands up a bit, let their fans have a say."
Separately, on Monday it was announced that Holler chief executive Mike Hill is to become executive creative director. The company also added Claus
Stangl to its team in the newly created role of creative lead.
