Mr Stone said Mr Clapperton would be working on ASB Bank and other projects, as well as new business.
He said Droga5 had in part used some of the planners from the Sydney office previously and that this was a new role for Droga5 New Zealand.
Strategic planning had been central to Droga5’s offering from the beginning and the agency was lucky to have some of the sharpest strategic minds working for it , Droga5 Australia executive planning director/partner Sudeep Gohil said.
“Jason adds to this awesome talent pool in spades and I am really excited about him joining the fold”
