Susan Credle to Join FCB as Global Chief Creative Officer

Award-Winning Industry Leader to Take Creative Reins in January 2016

FCB Worldwide CEO Carter Murray announced today that he has hired Susan Credle as his creative partner, naming her global chief creative officer.

Murray and Jonathan Harries, who has served as FCB’s global chief creative officer since 2006, jointly began a search for Harries’ successor a year ago. “The moment we met Susan, we both felt that she would be the perfect creative leader, given our ambition of being a true creative/business partner to our clients to help change consumers’ behavior,” said Murray. “Susan is joining a group of talented creative people and her wealth of experience, perspective and leadership style will make us all that much better.”

Harries will become chairman of the network and continue to inspire and counsel. “There is no one who has worked harder and cares more,” said Murray. “The chairman title and role, at its best, should be held by someone with stature who commands respect in a company. I can think of no one who deserves that title more.”  Read more.
