The promotion is recognition of the enviable body of work that Chris has generated during his four years at Mr B & Friends, including being the driving force in delivering the InterContinental Hotels Group Europe conference (a huge project that involved 48 separate workstreams) and leading two of our most famous projects – the creation of the Bristol Bears brand and the recent rebrand of Bristol City Football Club.
Executive Creative Director, Steve Richardson, says, “Since arriving with a bevy of motion and art direction clients, Chris has steadily built strategy, brand creation and digital experiences to his skill set. This, combined with a calm ‘I’ve got this’ approach makes him loved by the team and clients alike. I won’t blow too much more smoke up his backside, other to say he’s a top bloke and will add tremendous value to the leadership of our creative vision alongside myself and Kate Gorringe, our Creative Director.”
As the creative lead for one of the agency’s pods (an autonomous unit in terms of project delivery, account management and client satisfaction), Chris has honed his management experience and will now help to develop our creative ethos and quality standards across the agency.
