Ogilvy & Mather London (O&M London) named Mick Mahoney as chief creative officer to lead the agency's creative output across its client portfolio in the UK. He will report to CEO, Charlie Rudd. Mahoney, most recently executive creative director at RKCR/Y&R, previously worked as executive creative director at Havas Worldwide London. Prior to that, he was creative director at BBH London, where he worked with Rudd. Mahoney has created work for brands like Vodafone, Land Rover, Unilever and Johnnie Walker. He has won more than 150 industry awards, including a Cannes Grand Prix, 4 Gold Lions, 6 Silver Lions, a One Show Best In Show, 5 D&AD Silvers, and 5 BTAA Golds. "Mick is a rare creative talent," said Rudd. "Not only is he driven by the quality of the output and making all the work better but he is equally creative in thinking about how agencies need to change to stay relevant to clients' changing needs. I can't wait to partner with him again."
