Hot on the heels of Erik de Roos joining the partnership as head of account management, Cummins&Partners South Australia has finalised another major hire in the appointment of former Clemenger BBDO, Adelaide senior creative Jason Hollamby to the role of creative director and partner.

Cummins&Partners South Australia is reversing the trend seen by other agencies in the South Australian advertising market. Whist others are closing their doors and leaving the state, Cummins&Partners is continuing to expand.

Most recently at the Clemenger BBDO Adelaide (which was acquired by KWP! in December) Hollamby joins Cummins&Partners with an enviable creative portfolio and industry knowledge that spans more than 20 years in SA. Hollamby has won a swag of local and international creative awards, including South Australia’s only Effie wins. He has worked with high profile local and national clients including MAC, GSR, Mitsubishi, San Remo, Fantastic snack foods, Monjava Coffee, Lend Lease, Goodwill, Hickinbotham Homes, SA Lotteries, Bank SA, Bickfords, Balfours, Red Cross and Hills Industries.

“We’re thrilled to have Jason join our team as creative leader, and Partner in our agency,” says Managing Director, Bronwen Gwynn-Jones. “His extensive experience strengthens an increasingly powerful offering from Cummins&Partners SA.”

   

Says Hollamby: “I’m excited about joining Cummins&Partners, being an independent agency gives us the ability to control our own destiny.  We have a strong creative department in Adelaide, and access to world-class thinkers within the Cummins&Partners network of agencies across Australia and in New York.”

The new senior talent hires coincide with Cummins&Partners South Australia celebrating its third birthday this month, and recent new business wins, to be announced shortly.
