Grey New York Creative Leader Andreas Dahlqvist Returns to DDB
Posted in: Uncategorized
Grey New York Chief Creative Officer Andreas Dahlqvist has left his post at the WPP agency to return to DDB as chief creative officer of newly formed Nord DDB, which brings the Stockholm, Copenhagen, Oslo and Helsinki shops together under one roof.
Dahlqvist, who has been at Grey for two-and-a-half years, will rejoin DDB in September. During his previous time at DDB, he served as executive creative director of its Stockholm office, which earned acclaim for its campaigns for the Swedish Armed Forces, McDonald’s and Volkswagen, including the last’s much-celebrated “Fun Theory” campaign.
Grey New York CEO Debby Reiner wrote in an internal memo that the agency has “recruited a new creative leader whom we will announce shortly.” The shop has seen a number of creative leaders leave in the last 18 months, including Tor Myhren, former Grey Worldwide chief creative officer and New York president who left to head creative at Apple in December 2015, and Doug Fallon and Steven Fogel, the creative team behind the agency’s much-lauded DirecTV work who moved to BBDO.
