Andrew Durkan & Max Gillett

An art director who can write. And a copywriter who can art direct. Max and Andrew are at their best when there’s a brief to crack.

Between them they possess a wealth of experience gained at some great agencies. Whether beavering away at the coalface or heading up and directing the creative on accounts, they work effortlessly across the full spectrum of media to deliver ideas that consistently keep clients happy and agencies happier.

TV, Digital, DM, Press, Outdoor, Promotions, Retail, Radio, POS - on their own, in any combination, or as fully integrated campaigns - they’re adept at them all. Always executed to an incredibly high standard. Always on time. And always with a touch of humour.

Driven by the desire to produce work that makes them proud, Max and Andrew are also exceptional at nurturing more junior creatives to produce their best possible work.

Day-to-day briefs. Tough briefs. Re-briefs. Last chance briefs. And of course, pitches. They’re never satisfied until it’s cracked. And cracked to a level that brings a smile to even the most surly of chops.

Whether working at big agencies like BBH and Saatchi & Saatchi, smaller independents like The Tribe, or specialist shops like: Gyro and Lida, Max and Andrew know what it takes to create great, strategically-sound work, how to sell it, and how to craft it to its full potential.

From cars to banks, through telecoms and alcohol, to entertainment, travel, charity and healthcare - they’ve helped create advertising for many of the world’s most famous brands.

They have also been awarded with around 100 shortlists and 20 statues at global (Cannes, One Show, Clios, ADCNY, NYF), regional (Epica, DubaiLynx) and local (Roses, Campaign Direct, Loeries, Eagles) awards festivals over the years.
