The Jung von Matt agency has launched a London office.

Jung von Matt London will kick off with founding client Vauxhall/Opel, creating a campaign for the Corsa, set to launch later this month. The London outpost will be led by Rob Conibear, managing director, with executive creative directors Charlie Hurst and Marcos Gemai.

Jung von Matt Chief creative officers Daniel Schaefer and Szymon Rose said the expansion was "just the logical next step for us as an agency."

Previously, Conibear was a group brand director at 72andSunny Amsterdam and business director at M&C Saatchi, while Hurst joins from Lucky Generals, where he was creative director. He's also worked at Wieden+Kennedy and Mother in London.

Conibear said: "Jung von Matt is still 100% independent, and you can feel that in the culture. There is a freedom to explore new ways to get to great work. We're excited to be adding a London point of view to that."

Founded in 1991 in Hamburg, Jung von Matt now has 34 offices in 10 countries, including the U.S., China, South Korea and numerous European locations. The agency's client work includes MINI, adidas, BMW, Vienna Tourist Board, Bosch and Hyundai.
