Les Gaulois Appoints Stéphane Gaubert as Creative Director

Les Gaulois Agency is expanding its creative team with the arrival of Stéphane Gaubert as Creative Director. 

Xavier Beauregard, co-president and CCO at Les Gaulois, chose Stéphane Gaubert to join his team of creative directors. While at Leo Burnett, the two signed multi-award winning campaigns such as "Ne serait-ce qu'une seconde" for the Mimi Foundation and "TheWayYouAre" for Samsung to name a few.

Gaubert began his career in 2003 at BBDP & fils as a copywriter, before heading to TBWA\Paris and then Leo Burnett. He took up his first Creative Director position at Fred & Farid in 2015.

This experience enabled him to strengthen his digital expertise, win new business and score more than fifty international awards, most notably with the well-known campaign #MaPlaceEstDansLaSalle.

During his career, he has worked for national and international accounts such as Nissan, SNCF, Charal, PlayStation, Nivea, Amnesty International, McDonald's and BNP Paribas. Most recently, he led the creation on big budget campaigns for Club Med, General, Humanis and Gemo. His experience with these advertisers, his understanding of the brands and his creativity will be a huge boon to the Les Gaulois agency.

"Joining Les Gaulois was an obvious step for me. With Elisabeth and Xavier, we have the same goal to accelerate the creative development of the agency and to serve the business of our customers. And of course, the idea of ​​going back on an adventure with Xavier was more than enticing."

Xavier Beauregard, co-president and CCO at Les Gaulois, said: "With the recent appointment of Alexandre Drouillard as creative director and the recruitment of Hadi Hassan-Helou and Jérôme Gonfond, the arrival of Stéphane answers the strong ambition of the agency in creation and gives an additional impulse in particular to social strategies."

Elisabeth Billiemaz, president at Les Gaulois, commented: "Stéphane is not only a creative director who is multi-talented, but also has a real involvement in the clients' business."
