Thinkerbell has announced that Jerker Fagerström will be taking the reins of Thinkerbell North (Sydney) in the newly-created role of Managing Partner.
Fagerström has wide-ranging experience across creative agencies; from building and selling his own agency, to working in group pan-European roles within Publicis. He’s also been Managing Director, Head of Strategy and ECD at various times in his career.
He has also been a part of well-known campaigns including VW Cannes Grand Prix winning Fun Theory while at DDB.
“Jerker is a world class creative leader, is highly creatively driven, and he’ll help us to deliver even more measured magic and drive Thinkerbell Sydney to even greater heights”, said Thinkerbell CEO, Margie Reid.
Fagerström added: “Once we decided to move back to Sydney I sat down and wrote myself a wishlist: an agency with big ambition, breadth and depth of talent, and a culture of having fun together. I knew Adam from way back to our Saatchi days but after having spent time with Margie, Jim, Cuz and team it was obvious that Thinkerbell ticked everything on that list. I absolutely love their Thinker Tinker model and their incredibly broad range of what’s possible.”
Adam Ferrier, chief thinker said “ Jerker’s the best, a wonderful chap and bloody strong leader – he’ll be a brilliant Managing Partner for our North offering.
Fagerström position at Thinkerbell starts in January 2023.
