We’re going to be honest – we’ve had a lot more creative work coming our way recently, more than we could sustainably handle in the long run. We knew that if we were going to meet our clients’ needs effectively, we needed more hands on deck.
So, say hello to HUB’s brand-new Creative Director, Christian Shone (left)!
Christian will lead HUB’s creative team and oversee the full spectrum of creative output across the agency, including conceptual design, digital design, print media, social media content, web design, packaging, photography and videography shoots in HUB Studios, as well as post-production and video editing – no pressure!
Christian joins HUB with a distinguished track record in both agency and client-side roles, which we’re super excited about. He brings deep expertise in brand and campaign development, having held senior positions at agencies such as Propaganda, PWLC, and dR Agency, and has most recently served as Creative Director at Skipton Building Society and Senior Creative at SharkNinja.
The move also coincides with the creation of a new senior leadership role for Simon Pluck (right), HUB’s co-founder and former Creative Director who we all know and love. We’re pleased to say that Simon is staying with us and will take on the exciting new role of Creative Partner, providing strategic creative leadership for some of our larger integrated accounts.
“Christian’s appointment marks an exciting new chapter for the agency,” said Rob Shaw, CEO of HUB. “His blend of agency and client-side experience will be invaluable as we continue to elevate the vast creative output for our clients and nurture our talented team. With Simon stepping into the new role of Creative Partner, we’re also looking forward to deepening our commitment to the long-term success of our clients with more strategic creative leadership.”
