Camacho has been with MullenLowe in Vietnam in the ECD role since early 2014, after joining from Lowe SSP3 Colombia.

Campaign Brief Asia spoke to J Walter Thompson China Chairman and North Asia CCO, Norman Tan, at the recent Ad Stars Festival in August and he said he was excited about the appointment. Tan said Camacho would join their two existing Shanghai ECDs and would work across international and some local accounts.

“I’m very happy that Carlos is joining us,” said Tan. “I know him very well from my days at Lowe China and respect the work that he has been able to create at Lowe in Vietnam. As well as being a nice guy, Carlos is a very passionate creative and he has done great work on large accounts.”

Camacho takes up the role October 10th.
