JWT New York named Adam Kerj as chief creative officer. Kerj will report to Matt Eastwood, worldwide chief creative officer, and will be tasked with driving creative ideas for the New York office and its accounts, including Macy's, Johnson & Johnson, Puma, Vonage and Royal Caribbean. He will join the agency in early 2015. Kerj joins the agency from 360i, where he served as chief creative officer. He brings more than 20 years of experience working alongside brands such as P&G, Toyota and Oreo. Kerj has earned more than 50 international awards from Cannes Lions, The One Show, The Webbys, Eurobest, The Clios and New York Festivals. Prior to joining 360i, Kerj served as executive creative director and founding partner of Saatchi Sweden. Before that, he was executive creative director and founding partner at TBWA Sweden. "Adam is the ultimate modern communicator. He has achieved sweeping success as a digital pioneer, but has a background rooted in traditional advertising," said Eastwood. "A true global citizen, he has lived and worked around the world, and we are thrilled to have him join our flagship New York office."
