Nick Garrett named new CEO of Clemenger Melbourne with Jim Moser to refocus on NZ
One of the world’s most respected creative leaders and CEO of Colenso BBDO Nick Garrett has been named as the CEO of Clemenger BBDO Melbourne in a move which sees executive chairman Jim Moser refocussing on his New Zealand duties.
The move is the latest shakeup for the Melbourne agency since the retirement of stalwart Peter Biggs nearly a year ago, which saw Moser installed as chairman of the Melbourne Group but no CEO being bought in to replace him.
In today’s announcement Clemenger BBDO’s executive chairman Robert Morgan outlined the changes, which see Garrett transition to the Melbourne office from sister Omnicom agency Colenso in Auckland, with Moser moving the other way.

Good move. Nick has learnt his craft well and deserves the opportunity. He’ll be a formidable opponent. Congratulations Nick.
