Zulu Alpha Kilo has hired two new creative directors and two strategy directors. 
 
On the creative front, Gerald Kugler and Rodger Eyre join from Juniper Park/TBWA where they were most recently group creative directors. Prior to the merger of Juniper Park and TBWA, the pair were executive creative directors at TBWA where they oversaw notable campaigns such as Gatorade’s “Sledge Hockey” and Nissan’s “Back in the game” documentary.  They spent six years running Nissan, creating the “Conquer All Conditions” campaign, which recently earned them a Gold Cassie award in the “Sustained Success’ category in 2016. Throughout their careers, their work has won Cannes Lions, One Show, Communication Arts, Clios, and Marketing awards. Prior to TBWA, they’ve worked at Crispin, Porter & Bogusky, Roche Macaulay, BBDO and ACLC.
 
They will report into Zulu’s chief creative officer and founder, Zak Mroueh. Kugler and Eyre will join a diverse creative team which includes six other creative directors.
