Matt Lee and Pete Heyes have joined Leo Burnett London as creative directors working across all clients. After a year-long spell at Adam & Eve/DDB, the creative duo will be reunited with Leo Burnett Group’s executive creative director Justin Tindall.
During their time at Adam & Eve/DDB Lee and Heyes creative directed on VW’s recent ‘See Film Differently’ famous film back stories, and at The Red Brick Road the duo created the “There’s method in the Magners” cider campaigns ‘Straight’ and ‘Catch’.
Lee and Heyes began their careers with DFGW in 1998. They joined DDB first in 2000 - working on the VW, The Guardian and FT before joining The Red Brick Road in 2007, where they worked with Tindall until he joined Leo Burnett in January 2011. Lee and Heyes moved to Adam & Eve/DDB in November 2011.
Tindall commented: “Matt and Pete are a world class team who have the very rare talent of doing genuinely great work in every agency they’ve worked at. I am really excited to be working with them again.”
Lee and Heyes added: “The opportunity to work with Justin again was too good to turn down. We’ve made some great work together in the past, and at Leo Burnett, there’s a real opportunity for us to do more of the same.”
