Says Ponce de León: "Sharon and Josh have been part of every successful
new business pitch we had in the last 18 months. In addition, they've
also been responsible for some of our most successful brand launches.
They are humble, hard-working, down-to-earth and collaborative. They are
the embodiment of Ogilvy's quiet achiever. They are seasoned
professionals and their promotion is very much deserved."

Jurkschat (left) and Alex Little (right) have also been promoted to
senior art director and senior copywriter, respectively.
Says Ponce de León: "The boys have been quite busy making waves since their start as a creative team here at Ogilvy with some of our biggest brands, including the AAMI SmartPlates innovation project. Their attention to detail, craftsmanship and passion for the work is outstanding. They've also been regular new business contributors, so it was only fair they were provided with a bigger canvas in which to leave their mark."
In the last year, Ogilvy Melbourne has added Priceline, Lion, BP, Fletcher Building Group, Mondelez and The Melbourne Convention Bureau to its client roster, in addition to a number of Victorian Government and digital projects.
Says Gavin MacMillan, managing partner of Ogilvy Melbourne: "As we prepare for another year of growth, it was evident to all of us in the Melbourne leadership team that we needed additional depth to our creative offering. They were all obvious choices. I'm very proud that we were able to promote from within our existing ranks, and we look forward to see them all grow into their new roles."
Ogilvy Melbourne has also recently added four new creatives to its department, teams Carly Dallwitz and Sue Lorenz plus Zac Blakemore and Grga Calic, who will work through the line across the entire client portfolio.
Says Ponce de León: "I am thrilled to welcome an exceptional group of young creatives to our team and to promote some of our outstanding talent to help lead the creative department. I'm certain they will all help us continue our upward trajectory in new business, effectiveness and creativity. I believe Ogilvy Australia currently hosts some of Australia's most exciting talent across disciplines and I'm immensely proud to be part of this winning team."
