M+C Saatchi UK appoints industry powerhouse Lisa Carrana as Executive Head of Art
M+C Saatchi UK has appointed industry powerhouse Lisa Carrana to the newly created position of executive head of art, marking the next stage in our mission to build Cultural Power through creativity and craft.
Lisa brings more than 25 years of design experience, with a career spanning branding, advertising and integrated campaigns for some of the world’s most recognised brands. She has delivered award-winning work for Adidas, Just Eat, Xbox, Vodafone, Chivas Regal, Sky and eBay.
She joins from Dentsu Creative, where she was UK head of design with a focus on nurturing talent and driving cultural initiatives, and previously spent almost eight years at McCann London, rising from design director to head of design and working closely with our current joint global chief creative officers, Robert Doubal and Laurence 'Lolly' Thomson.
In her new role, Lisa will define and uphold the UK Group’s visual identity and artistic standards, ensuring that M+C Saatchi sets the benchmark for craft across the industry. She will lead and mentor design talent, inspire creative ambition, and bring together art directors, designers, illustrators, photographers and other specialists to deliver standout work. Lisa will work across every channel – from film and print to digital, social and experiential – embedding craft at the heart of the Group’s Cultural Power proposition and ensuring every execution is both visually distinctive and culturally resonant. She will report to Rob and Lolly.
