Jung von Matt/Limmat's creative leadership team is now complete. "The number of creative directors goes hand in hand with the positive development of the agency," says Dennis Lück, Chief Creative Officer at Jung von Matt/Limmat. "We consider ourselves lucky to be able to go full throttle in 2017 with five top shots in Switzerland. Together we want to conquer: clients, brands and many, many hearts."

The following five creative directors are now at the start:

Hanja Baruschke: Hanja graduated with a Degree of Honours in Advertising from Buckinghamshire University in England and began her professional career in England at renowned digital agencies such as Poke and Digitas LBi, where she was responsible for clients such as Coca Cola, Sky, Yahoo, Skype, Samsung and Carlsberg. Then it was off to Hamburg to Jung von Matt/Alster. There, Hanja was in charge of the digital business for Mercedes Benz. Further stations were VICE Berlin, where she was responsible for branded content and influencer marketing, and FCB Zurich, where she managed one of the most awarded digital campaigns in the world, "Search Racism. Find truth." for Refugees wellcome.

Samuel Wicki: Samuel is the agency's proudest homegrown and was recently promoted from senior copywriter to CD copywriter. He learned his trade at Jung von Matt/Alster, where he worked for brands such as IWC and Mercedes Benz. After a stopover at TBWA, he now leads the creative business of Migros and Swiss Life. Samuel's passion has four wheels, and because of his Alfa Romeo, his membership of the TCS is just as important to him as his membership of ADC Switzerland.

Lorenz Clormann: Lorenz is the latest addition to Jung von Matt/Limmat and comes fresh from Publicis, where he was responsible for the global SWISS brand presence, among other things. Previous professional stations were Scholz&Friends Berlin, Ruf Lanz and also Jung von Matt, where he was in charge of brands such as Mercedes Benz, NZZ and M- Budget at the time. The highly decorated ADC member also knows a thing or two about founding: On the one hand with founding a family, Lorenz
is father of a 1 year old daughter and a 4 year old son, on the other hand with founding and building up the underground techno club Pfingstweide in Zurich.

Wolfgang Bark: The "Catalog Critique" and "No empty chairs at X-Mas" for IKEA, the "Mystery Test Drive" for Mercedes Benz and the youth campaign "Drink & Drive" for Roadcross are just a few of the outstanding campaigns Wolfgang has developed to date. His professional stations include Wirz Werbung, Havas Worldwide Zurich, Grey Düsseldorf and Scholz&Friends Hamburg. In addition to his creative talent, the long-time ADC member has another rare gift: He knows every Top10 hit in America from 1984 by heart.

Rob Hartmann: Rob started his career in Montreal, Canada, at the agency SidLee. After working at Advico Y&R, Havas and Wirz BBDO, he joined Jung von Matt/Limmat in 2014. The ADC member has been involved in outstanding works such as "Great Escape" for Graubünden, "Opening Rothenburg" for IKEA or the Grand Prix winner "Grosse Gefühle" for the Zurich Chamber Orchestra. But his best creations are not to be found in any award book or agency news, because the works are called Moritz, Felix and Valerie and keep Rob busy even after work hours.
