Brand consulting and design firm Landor Associates has promoted Kristin Nevin from client services director to executive director of the agency's recently established Melbourne office.
The company said Nevin will be directing the company's Melbourne branch, which opened last year, helping to develop both its business offering and presence in the Australian market.
With 13 years of experience in advertising, branding and design, Nevin started her career with Grey Worldwide and JWT, where she managed campaigns for Mitre 10, Shell, and Blockbuster.
She then moved to DiDonato, where she worked with Lion Nathan, Schweppes and Cadbury on brand strategy, naming, packaging design and new product development. Nevin also played an instrumental role at Asprey Creative, working for clients including National Foods, Kraft Foods, Jetstar and Pacific Brands.
“We are really excited by the success we have had in our first year of business and the platform we have created for our clients here in Melbourne,” Nevin said.
“We have a fantastic combination of client experience and creative expertise. After a strong launch last year, the key focus for 2013 will be to continue this growth while delivering the same outstanding service our clients have come to expect from Landor globally.”
The managing director of Landor Australia, Dominic Walsh, said he was confident about the growth prospects for the Melbourne office, which was opened last year to complement its existing Australian office Sydney.
“We saw a great opportunity in the Melbourne market and have been fortunate in seeing the business grow steadily over the past year. With Kristin at the helm, we look forward to making our presence in Australia even stronger.”
Design and branding agency Landor has announced new leadership for its year-old office in Melbourne.
