Lowe London to make eight staff redundant

by Caroline Lovell, Campaign 19-Sep-08

Lowe London is planning eight redundancies across its creative and production departments.

Three creative teams and one solo creative, plus an agency TV producer,
were told on Monday that their jobs were at risk, and have now entered a
two-week formal consultation period. A decision is expected at the end

of September.

The move will leave eight creative teams in the London office of the
network.

The redundancies follow Lowe declining to repitch for the global Stella
Artois and Twinings accounts when they came up for review this year.

Ed Morris, Lowe London's managing partner creative, and Rebecca Morgan,
the agency's managing partner strategy, decided to make a number of
redundancies because the creative department was "too top-heavy".

Morgan said: "In this economic environment you have to make tough
decisions in order to move on and be prepared, and this is one of those
times."

Lowe London works on global accounts including Johnson & Johnson,
Electrolux, General Motors and Beck's. In the UK, it principally works
on John Lewis and COI.
