SYDNEY: Workshop Australia has appointed Tony Vigna, former creative at McCann Erickson and Euro RSCG, as associate creative director.
Vigna will work closely with agency principal and creative director
Jamie Kwong in running the creative department, which has expanded
since January.
His arrival rekindles a partnership with Kwong, with the pair both having worked together at McCann Erickson in the mid-90s.
Vigna's experience includes roles at Singleton Ogilvy & Mather, The Brand Shop and
George Pattersons on a range of major brands including Holden,
Coca-Cola, Volvo, LYNX, MasterCard, Nestle, Johnson & Johnson,
Telstra, Jim Beam, GIO, OPSM, Cathay Pacific, NRL and Hungry Jacks.
"Tony is incredibly passionate, conceptually brilliant and has a keen eye for art direction," said Kwong. "Above all, he is down to earth and a great person to have around. This is very important when it comes to fitting in at Workshop. I trust Tony implicitly with our culture, our team and our clients."
Workshop managing director and partner, Alira Connell said: "Tony has won creative awards locally and in international competitions and we feel both excited and privileged to have someone as talented and experienced as him join the team."
Vigna starts work immediately.
