ACNE London appoints chief strategy officer and head of new business

ACNE London has appointed John Crowther as chief strategy officer and Jack Williams as head of new business, as the agency continues to expand to meet significant client demand. 

Under the direction of managing director Annie Gallimore, who joined the agency in 2021, ACNE London’s headcount has doubled to 32 in the past 18 months.

Crowther, a former Publicis and Engine strategy partner, and Williams, formerly head of new business and marketing at Atomic London, will join ACNE’s leadership team in London. The pair will continue to grow the agency’s capacity to create stand-out creative work, with ACNE London recently launching multimedia campaigns for brands including Spotify, Netflix and National Geographic.

Annie Gallimore, managing director of ACNE London, said: “The race for talent in the creative industry is currently highly competitive, but the offering that we have at ACNE which combines access to some of the best data and insights globally with incredible creative talent has built a unique platform for individuals to build their careers. The combination of consultancy and creativity is transforming how businesses and brands perform, and people want to be a part of that.

“John and Jack bring a wealth of experience and knowledge to ACNE which will continue to grow the number of clients that we work with and the impact of the campaigns that we create.”
