    The move was announced in Campaign Live.

    Clerke became Ogilvy SA’s executive creative director (ECD) in 2021 as part of a renewed strategy and reorganisation of the Cape Town business.

    Vicki Buys, managing director, Ogilvy Cape Town says they are so pleased to see Camilla rising through the ranks of their global organisation.

    "It is a great acknowledgement of her achievements here in South Africa as well as a further acknowledgement of how the rest of the world rates our talent in SA.

    "We have been working with Camilla for a while on this move and it’s great to finally be able to talk about it."

    She adds, "We’re grateful for her contribution to Ogilvy South Africa and will be rooting for her in this new global role."

    Clerke has worked in roles at Metropolitan Republic, HelloComputer and HelloFCB+.

    Besides winning several local and international awards both locally and overseas, she has been a jury member on local awards juries as well international ones, including the recent 2024 Cannes where she judged the Outdoor category.

    She was named among Creativepool’s top 100 Creative Industry Influencers of 2020.
