Pitch Hires Sara Bamossy as Chief Strategy Officer

Pitch, the full-service creative advertising agency based here announced today that Sara Bamossy has been hired as Chief Strategy Officer. Bamossy was formerly Group Strategic Planning Director with Saatchi & Saatchi, where she logged over ten years of strategy experience working in the Los Angeles, Sydney, Paris, and London offices. Bamossy moves from the LA office of the Publicis Groupe-owned agency to a smaller creative-driven shop widely known for high-profile campaigns on a variety of household-name brands including Burger King, Pepsi, Meineke and Pinkberry.

“Is it possible to experience love at first sight with an agency? Pitch is a small shop with big talent,” said Bamossy. “As soon as I walked through the doors I felt that the energy, ambition and entrepreneurial culture was a perfect fit. This is a unique opportunity to help shape the vision and direction of an already fantastic place to work in LA.“

A Summa Cum Laude graduate of UCLA’s prestigious Honors College with a degree in Marketing and Communications, Bamossy brings to Pitch a broad range of hands-on brand and retail experience with global clients including Toyota, Kraft/Cadbury, P&G, General Mills, Roxy and Square Enix. Her strategic thinking has inspired campaigns that have earned numerous industry awards including a Gold Jay Chiat Award, a Bronze Effie and a Cannes Gold Cyber Lion.

We’re extremely happy that she is joining the Pitch team.”
