DEAN HUNT.JPGEXCLUSIVE – Publicis Mojo, Sydney senior copywriter Dean Hunt is set to join BMF on the 20th August, the latest high profile creative to depart Mojo in recent months.

Publicis Mojo regional creative director Darren Spiller left to join Fallon USA in June (Spiller’s role was filled by former JWT worldwide CD Craig Davis), followed by Melbourne senior art director Christy Peacock last month. Earlier this year top creative Mike Burdick was retrenched from the Sydney office, eventually joining DDB Sydney last week.

 

Described as a ‘sensitive’ creative, Hunt will join Paul Bruce, in what he describes as a “no brainer” decision. Says Hunt: “I’ve always been a fan of BMF’s structure, people skills and ideas. I’m very excited and proud to be invited into such a reputable gang. I can’t wait to get started and am looking forward to having some fun. It’s a fantastic opportunity for me,” says Hunt, while sipping on a Soy Latte.

 

Hunt leaves Publicis Mojo after a three year stint, working on range of accounts such as Toyota Kluger, Nike, Coca-Cola and Virgin Active Health Clubs.

 

“I’ve worked with Dean in the past and he’s one of the funniest guys I know. He’ll be a great addition to the culture here at BMF,” said Simon Langley, creative director. “The added bonus is he’s an award winning creative who is passionate about doing great work on big brands.”
