Rob Jack leaves M&C

Rob Jack, the multiple D&AD-winning CD/writer, is leaving M&C Saatchi Auckland to freelance. In an email this afternoon to his extensive network of friends and colleagues in NZ and abroad, Rob said he'd be leaving in a day or two, and would be available for freelance work after that.

CB reports that "at the time Oliver Maisey joined M&C from FCB, the plan was to leave Rob Jack as CD of Auckland while Maisey would be in a National role with plans to beef up the fledgling Wellington office."

Clearly the loss of the Tourism NZ business mid-last year has meant there is currently not enough freight for this sort of weight.

Before taking the M&C CD role 14 months ago, Jack had spent a year or so in DDB's creative department after being lured from London - and won numerous awards during his time there.

Anyone interested in getting Rob in for a spot of work should wait a day or two then
email him at:

He'll have a newerer more writerly address shortly.
