GPY&R Sydney names David Joubert creative director

Joubert transfered from the Brisbane office in May last year where he won a series of awards culminating in Australia's only Design Lion at Cannes in 2010.

He joined the agency in 2008 from TBWA Hunt Lascaris based in South Africa. In Asia, he has worked with McDonald's, Tiger Beer, IBM and Standard Bank.

“David is an exceptionally strong creative force with great local and global experience. He performed superbly in our Brisbane office, creating world-class work in a traditionally conservative market,” said ECD Julian Watt.
