BMF strengthens creative team
BMF has announced the arrival of award-winning international creatives Doug Hamilton and Casey Schweikert.
Creative Doug Hamilton has joined BMF as a Creative Director.
With a decade of experience Hamilton has worked at some of the world’s most prominent advertising agencies such as Droga5 NY, Anomaly, BBH Singapore and TBWA Sydney, on campaigns for Google, Under Armour, Covergirl, Budweiser and Captain Morgan, to name a few.
Alongside Hamilton, and after spending four years working in New York at R/GA and BBH, Casey Schweikert has decided to return to her hometown of Sydney to join BMF. During her time out of Australia Schweikert produced work for various global brands such as PlayStation, Amazon, Planned Parenthood, Seamless, Verizon and JBL.
“As Australia’s most effective creative agency, there are no better hires than Doug and Casey," said Alex Derwin, CCO at BMF. "They both bring a powerful combination of international pedigree and local expertise and they’ve already started to push our thinking into some really interesting spaces. Most importantly, they fit with the culture of the place – they’re talented, smart, humble and nice.”
“BMF turns out such consistently excellent and effective work, I’m chuffed and humbled to help Alex and the team push for even greater heights," said Hamilton:. "From day one I’ve felt welcome and at home. I can’t wait to hit the ground sprinting.”
“I’ve always been a fan of BMF and the work they’ve done, so I’m very excited to join the team," added Schweikert. "Lots of great creative opportunities to get stuck into with an awesome bunch of people.”
