Leagas Delaney London named Kit Dayaram as creative director. He will work across the agency's client base.

Prior to his appointment, Dayaram held senior posts at various agencies, including Wieden+Kennedy, Mother, Lucky Generals and the in-house BBC Creative.

His previous client work includes British Airways, Beck’s and Transport For London, which earned him a Cannes Gold for the "Awareness Test" campaign. Other notable work includes the "Believe in Better" platform for Sky and "The White Russian" campaign for Kahlua.

"After a record-breaking year for Leagas Delaney, we’ve looked to grow and strengthen our team across all departments — but only with the most exceptional talent. As soon as we met Kit, it was clear to all of us that his outstanding creative pedigree made him an obvious fit for our ambitions," said Gareth Davies, CEO, Leagas Delaney.

In June, Leagas Delaney appointed a new managing partner, Chris Boyton, who joined from M&C Saatchi World Services.

The independent agency, founded in 1980, has six offices globally. Based in London, it also has outposts in Milan, Hamburg, Johannesburg, Los Angeles and Shanghai. Bowers & Wilkins, Patek Philippe, MSC, Ballantine's and Chubb are among the shop's account work.
