Colenso Hires Jack Cumming as Managing Partner

Colenso has appointed Jack Cumming as managing partner. He joins the agency to lead a portfolio of local and global clients alongside supporting the agency’s new business efforts.

Originally from Scotland, Jack spent nearly five years at BBH London -- where he oversaw several brands like Barclays, Pernod Ricard (Martell), and Samsung, winning multiple industry awards for creativity and effectiveness along the way.

“Colenso have always intrigued me," Jack said.

"One of the most creatively awarded companies on the planet, consistently delivering on the world stage, year after year. A wildly creative business in a wildly beautiful country. I’m delighted to join the team, to begin to understand how they’ve punched above their weight for so long and to help drive even more success for the agency and our clients.”

Colenso chief executive officer Angela Watson added, “We’re thrilled to have Jack join the team. His global experience, strategic clarity, and creative mind make him a perfect fit for Colenso.

"Jack brings a calm confidence and sharp thinking to the room. He elevates both the work and the people around him and he’s already making a mark at Colenso.”
