JOHN FOSTER SCORES CD GIG AT BBH NEW YORK
Aussie expat John Foster has scored a plum job as one of five creative directors at BBH New York, reporting to ECD Kevin Roddy. He will be primarily responsible for the Vaseline brand portfolio, being global CD on this business.
Prior to this, Foster's most recent job was one of Craig Davis's appointments as regional CD of JWT Middle East, based in Dubai. Before that he held senior creative roles at Saatchi & Saatchi, Singapore and Leo Burnett, Sydney.
Foster told CB: "It's a superb gig, being English I've long been an admirer of their work and their ethos. They seem like a great bunch of people as well, I can't wait to get going. I've always had a real desire to work in New York too, so this just feels right on so many levels."

CD of Vaseline eh?Try admitting that at trendy New York parties.
I bet it's fully penetrated the San Francisco demographic.
Yep, he looks like the guy for the vasaline gig.
They should have put some on the lens before they took the photo.
"Aussie expat ... being English ..."?!?Make up your bloody mind, John.
5 CDs! Must be some friction there. Oh, yeah, of course not.
Congrats John, all the best!
I'm sure John can now slowly ease himslef into the glistening hole that is New York.
And "..it feels so right on so many levels."I bet it fucking does.
Two other ex-singapore creatives are also CDs at BBH NY - Craig Smith and Kash Sree.
To all you detractors and protractors out there. I bet you secretly wish you were at BBH working on anything they gave you.
Sure, as long it wasn't gay lube.
He does need some vaseline after the way he was treated in Dubai...
Good on him / them
