Saatchi & Saatchi has poached James Theophane from Holler to take up a role as its group creative director.
Theophane is currently creative director of Holler, starting in 2012 after retrenchment from Clemenger BBDO Melbourne.
He has also worked in London, New York and Amsterdam, creating campaigns for Nike, D&AD, Audi, Pepsi, Heinken and Skittles, including the “telekinize the Rainbow campaign”.
Saatchi & Saatchi executive creative director Mike Spirkovski said: “Theophane is a rare talent who simply gets great work and always goes beyond to deliver something special and genuinely fresh that no one else has ever thought of. Plus he has incredible hair and a mean ginger beard.”
Saatchi & Saatchi has been bolstering its creative department, appointing creative team Anton Posa and John Jordan in October.
