Lowe Sydney’s digital creative director, Tom Markham has been appointed to the worldwide digital CD role, and will soon be joining the Lowe Worldwide team in New York, working closely with Lowe’s South African born chief creative officer, Matthew Bull.

“Tom’s remit is to inspire and encourage every Lowe person in the world to create ideas that come alive digitally,” says Bull. “Tom has consistently produced world class work, with digital at its core, through his career and for us at Lowe in particular. We want to take his skills and use them both to create work for our global brands, but also to inspire Lowe offices all around the world to create more digital content.”
