Multi-awarded AD Brigid Alkema promoted to creative director at Clemenger BBDO Wellington
Alkema began her career at Clemenger in 1999 when she was hired by Duster as one of the first young teams to join the newly merged agency.
Alkema did three years in Wellington before heading to DDB Sydney, Clemenger BBDO Sydney and then a stint travelling the world.
Rejoining the agency in 2006 she went on to produce much of the agency's best work, turning a lot of it into Gold.
Says Duster: "Didge has worked with a number of different partners over her
time in the industry and despite that constant change, great work has
always been the result. She works hard to develop respectful
relationships and has matured into a world class strategic and creative
thinker.
"The announcement of her appointment to creative director recognises the role Didge has played in the agency for some time now. It's a mark of her commitment to the work that she made us promise that she would still be on the tools."
Alkema will continue to work with her partner, senior copywriter Mitch Alison.
