Jung von Matt is bringing top international creative Christian Kies to Switzerland as Chief Creative Officer. In doing so, the agency aims to strengthen its position in Switzerland and beyond. The position is intended to "bring out even more of Switzerland's potential", says Roman Hirsbrunner, CEO of Jung von Matt in Switzerland.
Awards and top creatives at Antoni
Kies was most recently Executive Creative Director for the global Mercedes-Benz account at the Antoni agency in Berlin. Kies has received numerous international awards for his work. Several Cannes Lions, Pencils and other awards adorn his palmares, which was recently extended by several nails at the ADC Awards 2024 in Germany.
He previously worked for Jung von Matt in Berlin for eight years, where he helped shape accounts for Netflix, DHL, Mercedes-Benz and Nikon. "The dormant creative potential in Switzerland, the thirst of Swiss clients for progressive ideas and the openness to new influences are the ideal breeding ground for outstanding work," says Kies. He starts on September 1, 2024.
