BBDO Guerrero Ortega appoints Welsh and Limchoc as ECDs

MANILA - BBDO Guerrero Ortega has promoted Simon Welsh and Joel Limchoc (pictured) to joint executive creative directors.

Limchoc had been creative director and head of art for the past four and a half years, while Welsh was CD and head of copy for two and a half years.

The two will continue to report to David Guerrero, the Omnicom agency’s chairman and chief creative, who will now also take on an expanded role covering Proximity Philippines plus additional regional duties.

He said: “We are fortunate to have four out of the top five ranked creatives by Campaign Brief in the country. Joel and Simon are responsible for much of the work that has made us Agency of the Year at both the Philippine Ad Congress and in Campaign Brief rankings. Their promotions are richly deserved and will help take the department to the next level.”
