Omnicom’s dedicated McDonald’s unit, We Are Unlimited, deepened its creative team with the addition of six new hires.
Executive Creative Directors Chris Moreira and Mark Schöller left Saatchi & Saatchi New York to work on McDonald’s U.S. account, reporting to Chief Creative Officer Toygar Bazarkaya.
“We are building a new agency model, which combines great talent with a great brand and one great ambition. Chris and Mark are the kind of people who love the idea of building something new, and their leadership will help us create groundbreaking work across the board,” Bazarkaya said in a statement.
Moreira and Schöller served as Executive Creative Directors at Saatchi & Saatchi, New York since September of 2014, working with brands such as Charter Spectrum, Head & Shoulders and Tecate. Prior to joining Saatchi & Saatchi they spent a little over a year as Creative Directors with CP+B Miami.
