The Immortal Awards Announces 2024 North America Jury Lineup
The Immortal Awards has revealed the names of the advertising leaders who will sit on the 2024 North America jury.
The jury will convene in New York on November 8th for the North America jury day, which this year is being supported by long-term partner Whitehouse Post. The jury will decide which projects, if any, will be crowned the best of North American advertising and go on to represent the market in the final, global round of judging.
Joining the group are standout creatives and leaders from both Canada and the US, across the brand, agency, production and post worlds. Their task will be to refine the Canadian and US Finalists from the country based round of judging.
Among the group is brand representation in the form of Apple’s Alice Bottaro, Coca-Cola’s Islam El Dessouky and Kruger’s Susan Irving.
A strong creative agency contingent features IPG’s Susan Credle, Zulu Alpha Kilo’s Brian Murray, R/GA’s Tiffany Rolfe, Ogilvy’s Joe Sciarrotta, Droga5’s Pelle Sjoenell and Rethink’s Aaron Starkman.
Chelsea Pictures’ Lisa Mehling and Omnicom Production’s Sergio Lopez are production representatives, whilst post-production will feature with Whitehouse Post’s Heidi Black and JSM Music’s Joel Simon.

Commenting on the jury, Paul Monan, awards director at The Immortal Awards, says, “The North America jury is a relatively unique regional jury at this competition, bringing together just two markets in Canada and the US. Both countries produce world-leading, groundbreaking creative campaigns and watching the jurors come together collaboratively, rather than competitively, is always a delight. Having stopped in Chicago last year, we’re back in New York for 2024 thanks to the continued support of the team at Whitehouse Post, so a huge thank you to the crew for partnering with us again this year.”
