John was previously creative director at Mother

John Cherry, creative director at Mother is set to join Atomic London as head of creative and ECD to lead an exciting new chapter for the agency. Cherry will be responsible for setting the agency’s creative vision through big brand ideas activated in infectious and relevant ways across the whole customer journey. He’ll partner with Head of Strategy, Steve Hopkins and Managing Director, Louise Rudaizky and report to CEO, Jon Goulding. Katy Sumption will continue as ECD leading the agency’s social and activation capability.

Cherry is one of the most highly regarded and awarded creative leaders in the industry having previously worked at Wieden+Kennedy, Fallon, JWT, VCCP and two great stints at Mother. He’s won a bag full of top awards including Cannes Lions, D&AD, BTAA, Campaign Big and Creative Circle for the likes of Stella Artois, Orange, Honda, and EasyJet.

Goulding said: “John is a fantastic talent, who’s created some of our industry’s best work. It’s rare to find such a great conceptual thinker, able to bring his ideas to life in everything from TV to social to PR. And most importantly, he’s a refreshingly down to earth and collaborative person who I know will bring the best out of our talent.”

Cherry said: “I’ve learnt plenty from the agencies I’ve been privileged to work at and noticed one thing - great creative comes from working with partners that are smart, encouraging and fun. Jon, Lou and Steve have all those qualities. I’m properly excited to be part of Atomic, to build on top of what’s already there, and have fun making famously memorable work, wherever it’s encountered.”

Creative non-executive director Ewan Paterson, said: “Our creative ambition at Atomic is to create culturally famous ideas that have the power to transform brands. John has made a career of doing exactly that, for the world’s biggest brands at the best creative agencies.”
