Brooklyn-based digital agency Big Spaceship hired Cedric Devitt as chief creative officer, a new position. Devitt will report to Michael Lebowitz, founder and CEO of Big Spaceship. Prior to Big Spaceship, Devitt served as chief creative officer of MRY and was responsible for the creative output of the agency across North America, Europe and Asia. Before LBi acquired MRY in 2013, Devitt spent more than three years at LBi in creative leadership roles, including chief creative officer and executive creative director. "Since we opened our doors in 2000, creativity has always been and will always be the responsibility of every member of our crew, regardless of their role. That's the primary reason for our success and longevity," said Lebowitz. "Our clients are asking us to take on a more central role in their overall efforts. Cedric's experience across traditional, digital and social is critical to meeting the expanded challenges and leadership role being asked of us, while maintaining our philosophy and culture."
