Phil Gayter has joined Nicholson Kovac, Inc., as Director of Creative Services. You know Phil, it is a good thing to be philosophically in agreement with the company you work for!

“With a solid career built on creative and management positions at Leo Burnett in London and Chicago and Euro RSCG McConnaughy Tatham in Chicago, Phil’s creative leadership is perfect for us,” says Nick Nicholson, agency co-founder and executive vice president. “The fact he ran his own agency for five years adds a bit of entrepreneurial spirit that will be good for both our clients and our agency. We expect to see our creative excellence continue to rise with Phil at the creative helm.”

Nicholson Kovac conducted an extensive national search to find the right individual. “Nicholson Kovac was a very pleasant surprise,” commented Gayter. “Philosophically, we are in total agreement on what strategically grounded creative is all about. Great creative must be attention-getting, but it must get the job done for the clients first.”
