Sir Mary is expanding its creative team. Adrian Merz is leaving Thjnk Zurich and joining the agency at Zurich’s Lochergut as Creative Director.

Merz studied visual communication in Bern and got his start at Jung von Matt Limmat before moving to London. There he worked for Akqa, Anomaly, BBH and Mother, among others, as senior creative and art director. He looked after international clients such as Nike, Google Play, Ray Ban, Lego, Stella Artois and Axe.

An offer of employment as creative director prompted Adrian Merz to return to Switzerland and Jung von Matt in the summer of 2017. In this leadership role, he worked on campaigns for Graubünden Ferien, Swiss Radio and Television, Ovomaltine, as well as the Migros labels M-Budget and Generation M. After just under two years, he moved to Thjnk Zurich, where he was responsible as Creative Director for Credit Suisse, Audi, and Edelweiss Air, among others.

"For me, there was only one thing for the expansion of the creative management: Adrian or nothing! International experience in a network is one thing, but working for agencies like Mother or Anomaly is quite another," Florian Beck, Chief Creative of Sir Mary, was quoted as saying in a press release. "I'm looking forward to his international visual language and digital ideas that have nothing to do with advertising thinking."
