Back at Clemenger

AUCKLAND, Today: After a decade at Colenso, and a brief stint with Little Giant, Aaron Turk has returned to the Clemenger Group as creative director of newly transformed 99.

ECD Mick Stalker said: “Turk [as his mates call him] joins just as the agency is about to tackle some of its meatiest and most interesting briefs. With clients like Frucor, Spark, and Fidelity Life in the building, being able to translate brands across every customer touchpoint is vital.

“We’re stoked to have Turk’s energy and passion running around the halls. Anyone who has worked with him knows he is a creative force to be reckoned with.

“Turk was attracted by the reinvention story of 99. Having worked alongside a lot of the current management, he is confident they will achieve great things.”

“Turk grew up at the forefront of the digital revolution. He has been responsible for many, internationally recognised and award winning campaigns like V Motion Project, Pedigree Doggleganger, and Samsung’s Smart Phone Line to name a few. He has experience across every sector and has been a driving force of some of the best creative departments in the country.”

Turk says he was attracted by the reinvention story of 99. Having worked alongside a lot of the current management, he is confident they will achieve great things.

“I’ve been talking to these guys for a while now and watching closely how they are steering the agency. There is a huge amount of opportunity here and I can’t wait to help take it to the next level.”

99 MD Troy Fuller said: “It’s been a challenging year for everyone but the silver lining is that it has helped us shape our offering with more urgency. The hiring of Turk is just another step closer to getting to the work that we want to be producing”.
