BBH New York has hired Carey Head to serve as head of integrated production and technology, effective May 30. In the newly expanded role, Head will be tasked with continuing to grow the department’s digital scope and capabilities, including disciplines like UX and CT, while leading the integrated production team across all media platforms.
The hire and planned department expansion come at a time of growth for BBH NY following the recent addition of lauded (Cannes Lions, Clios, a pair of D&AD Yellow Pencils) art director Marcos Kotlhar who came over from AlmapBBDO in Sao Paulo, Brazil. BBH NY has also seen momentum spring from its production of creative work like the Sony PlayStation campaign “Greatness Awaits,” which helped catapult the new PS4 console to number 1 in the market. In addition to taking home the Sony PlayStation business last year, BBH NY was also named agency of record for Newell Rubbermaid’s 12+ global consumer brands and digital agency of record for Vaseline.
Head joins BBH with over 14 years in advertising and marketing. He was most recently head of integrated production at Barton F. Graf 9000. Prior to that, he served as director of digital production at Goodby, Silverstein & Partners. Throughout his career, Head has developed cutting-edge, disruptive campaigns for a number of blue-chip clients including the likes of Chevrolet, Doritos, GE, Adobe, and HP. His work has garnered recognition from such competitions as the Cannes Lions, the AICP Show, Clios, New York Festivals and The One Show.
