What you need to know:

• Re now opened doors in Melbourne.
• Plans to work more closely with M&C.

M&C Saatchi has expanded its global design business Re into Melbourne, setting up a team of five under Shannon Bell, the Cannes, One show and D&AD awarded Creative Director relocating from Sydney to head up the agency.

Over eight years at Re Sydney, Bell led the creative team working across clients including Optus, Commonwealth Bank and Woolworths. Clients in Melbourne include Maurice Blackburn Lawyers, Medibank, Ethos Urban and Mr Yum.

“We’ve been working with clients here for a while now, so it feels beyond time for Re to open a dedicated Melbourne office,” said Bell.

I think we offer something genuinely unique, a real focus on brand as a system of experiences, and a passion for making things that connect with people. I’m very excited to continue building our team here, as well as work more closely with our M&C Saatchi Group partners.”
