Design Bridge has appointed Alexandra Cerruti as the agency’s new Managing Director in Singapore, ascending from her previous role as Client Services Director. She will lead the Singapore Studio’s business and clients alongside Mark Budden, Design Bridge’s AsiaPac Regional Chairman, and the Studio’s Executive Creative Director, Tim Siro.
“What is really unique about Design Bridge around the world is our people and our culture, and I am proud to work for a company that counts four of its five global Managing Directors as women,” said Alexandra Cerruti. “Alongside my colleagues, I am committed to championing female empowerment and creative leadership, and striving for a more inclusive industry. The way we nurture our client relationships is another of our core strengths, and when you pair all of this with the amazing quality of our creative work, what we can achieve collectively has no limits.”
Cerruti brings with her a 13-year career working in the creative industry, which includes a 4-year stint at Carré Noir in Paris, Publicis’ iconic French strategic design agency. She moved from France to Singapore in 2013 to join the client servicing team at Design Bridge, working her way up through the ranks to become Client Services Director in 2018.
“Since joining the team seven years ago, Alexandra has been instrumental in shaping and growing the business of our Singapore Studio,” said Mark Budden, Design Bridge’s AsiaPac Regional Chairman. “I’m delighted for Alexandra and her new role, and I’m looking forward to working together to ensure the continued commercial success of our clients here in Singapore and beyond.”
“Growing talent at Design Bridge is key to our continued success and I’m really excited to promote Alexandra to the role of Managing Director in Singapore,” said John Morris, CEO of Design Bridge. “With a proven track record of building client relationships with strong bonds and leading outstanding creativity on projects, I have every confidence of her success, continuing to build upon the Singapore Studio’s strong foundations.”
