The Saatchi & Saatchi global community is led by Kate Stanners (Chairperson/CCO) – and we connect regularly to share work, plus work – and also meet in person annually with all ECD’s from across the region. The New York, London and Sydney offices do some incredible work – with multiple Cannes Grand Prix winners over just the past few years.

As a connected community, we collaborate with partners across the Groupe with different capabilities to make campaigns that live in a multitude of places.
Our agency has a big name but a startup mentality - fuelled by big ambitions, a willingness to experiment, and a way of make things happen, whatever the challenges. We were ranked #2 Medium Creative Agency in SA in 2020.
Our people are a diverse bunch of rebellious creatives, who love their work and always push to create work that matters. As a connected community, we collaborate with partners across the Groupe with different capabilities to make campaigns that live in a multitude of places.
