Hailing from Sao Paulo, Brazil, Vampre has worked extensively with world-renowned brands including Nike, Google, Moët Hennessy, Electrolux, Lexus, Qantas, Optus and Telstra.
Says Vampre: “I’m really excited by the opportunity to create meaningful work that can change behaviour. The breadth of talent, resources and incredible clients at Deloitte opens so many new avenues for innovative thinking.”
Says Lawson: “Gustavo has a passionate belief in the transformative power of creativity, and his work is clear evidence that he has the brilliance to produce world-changing ideas. We are proud to be building another option for creatives like him to channel their talents.”
2018 has been a breakthrough creative year for Deloitte. The Australian business has won two Cannes Lions, the Grand Prix for Australian Digital Idea of the year at the AMYs and 3 Spikes, including the heralded Innovation Spike.
