Brown
DDB Australia CEO Chris Brown has accepted the CEO and president role with the network’s New York office, as suggested by Mumbrella last week.
Andrew Little, DDB Australia managing director, is set to step into Brown’s role upon his departure for the US in September.
“It was impossible to turn down the opportunity to run DDB New York, where DDB was founded, the spiritual home of the network,” Brown said speaking to Mumbrella on the official announcement of his departure.
Well done Chris – inspiring stuff.
this is a very well deserved move for Chris, who is an outstanding operator and leader.
He has driven sustained success for his agency while also building a strong and supportive culture and treating everybody with admirable humanity.
He’s a good guy who deserves and will get continued success in this next role and beyond
Congrats Chris, a well deserved promotion for an awesome leader. Leif’s going to miss you 😉
Chris is one of the few agency leads that is a genuinely pleasant guy himself. Not a scintilla of ad-wanker in him. If he is what will set the standard for the DDB network, then it’s in a very good place.
Congratulations Chris for all you have achieved during your time with DDB in Sydney and all the best for your next exciting chapter in NY with your family.
Inspiring stuff.
One of the best in the Australian business who will be greatly missed – now go rock NYC!
Terrific Chris. You will be a great success and I wish you every happiness.
