Westpac New Zealand reaffirms partnership with
Saatchi & Saatchi New Zealand


Westpac’s General Manager Marketing and Products David Cunningham said today that Westpac looked forward to continuing its strong working relationship with Saatchi and Saatchi New Zealand

Following a regular marketing and advertising review conducted internally, Westpac today announced that The Campaign Palace Red Cell is re-joining Westpac’s panel of advertising agencies as lead agency in Australia.

“This decision does not affect the relationship with Saatchi & Saatchi from a New Zealand perspective.

“Saatchi & Saatchi NZ has proven to have a strong understanding of our brand and our business, and we look forward to maintaining this important relationship,” David Cunningham said.

I'm getting pretty sick of Ben Pegler hogging the limelight. I hear he even turned a job at BBH in London. John Hegarty is furious.
