JWT sign Hungerford and Keogh from Y&R

Hungerford will join the agency as creative director while Keogh will be appointed senior interactive art director.

The pair¹s partnership stretches from their stint at George Patterson Y&R and includes award-winning work for clients Victoria Bitter, the Australian Defence Force, the Australia Football League, Nintendo and Yellow Pages.

Hungerford, who began in interactive career at Patts in 2003, said: "I think the opportunity at JWT is fantastic. In digital terms, it¹s got huge potential. The combination of their client base, Richard leading the creative department and the energy that (new managing director) John Gutteridge is bringing to the place make it an incredible opportunity."

Richard Muntz, the agency's executive creative director, said: "Both Nick and Marty are a rare breed, combining original conceptual thinking across a broad range of clients. JWT have scored a major coup by securing such prodigious talent."
