Congratulations guys!
This is top news for you and McCanns.
It's no doubt you'll make truly excellent CDs.
Can't wait to see what comes out of the agency under your discerning eye.
Good luck Nick. You've got a big job ahead of you.
I notice their work has not been recognised at D&AD, Cannes, Clios, One Show, LIA and AWARD. Maybe it was this that helped them stand out from the crowd?
Yes it's a big job 12:31 but if there's anyone who can combine experience in the ways of multinationals and a real talent for disruptive ideas, it's Nick and Phil. A really smart appointment - congratulations, guys.
Your mum was recognised on Grey St on Saturday night though Jay.
That's hilarious.
Stephen Fisher retires, Nick and Phil get promoted.
When the Lord closes a door, somewhere He opens a window.
Nice one boys.
Love the Madmen suits. Just gotta be the next ironic t shirt!
Well done lads!
Well done fellas.
A good, smart, hardworking team who've done the hard yards on some tough clients in a pretty tough agency.
At least McCann knows they won't go to water the first time things don't go their way.
Spot on Jay. That's precisely why they got that job at McCann.
I prefer the B and T version of the story with Phil can Bruchem:
"McCann Melbourne has appointed Nick Weller and Phil can Bruchem as joint creative directors of the agency."
Don't know how he goes about Phillin' cans but he doesn't mind emptying a can or two.
Or perhaps Bruchem is some kind of dance. Phil can Dance?
Nice one boys.
Seriously good work guys. Good to see real talent recognised for a change.
The 1st client meeting will be hilarious!
I love you Phil.
Well done boys.
Couldn't have happened to two better guys! Woo! Congrats!
