Justin Hind, CEO at CHE Proximity said, “Jonny is a key senior addition to the agency management team. He is world class in every respect and it’s great to see him stay within the Clemenger family. His impact internally and externally will help shape CHE Proximity further and we all couldn’t be more excited.”
Berger added, “I’m humbled to join the brilliant team at CHE Proximity and focus my energy on an account with the ambition, potential, integration and scale of Samsung. There’s no other account like it in Australia and no other agency quite like CHEP. As ever, I stand on the shoulders of giants and look forward to helping forge the next chapter of both account and agency, propelled by all I’ve learnt more recently at Clemenger Melbourne.”
