Adam Tucker

Adam joined Ogilvy in late 2012 in his current role, having returned from 12 years of living and working in London.
Adam started his career at Tatham Euro RSCG Chicago as an account executive trainee, working with a multitude of clients including Ameritech Telecommunications, Coors Brewing and P&G, learning the fundamentals of the business. He then joined Fallon Minneapolis in 1995 as an account supervisor and went on to become the global group account director in the Fallon London office. There, Adam directed development of United Airlines’ European campaign which subsequently won Gold, Silver, and Bronze Lions at Cannes as well as a Gold Euro Effie. He also led the European launch of Citibank’s now famous “Live Richly” campaign. In addition he ran the pitch for Sony Consumer Electronics across Europe and went on to lead the business after a successful pitch win.
In 2006, Adam joined AMV BBDO, the UK’s most creatively awarded agency (according to 2012 Gunn and Big Won rankings). Recognized for his proficiency in developing award-winning work for big international brands, Adam was promoted to international client service director in 2007 to oversee the global lead agency creative assignments for Johnson & Johnson, GE, PepsiCo, Dulux, Arla Foods and Birds Eye.
Adam was promoted in 2009 to managing partner to take a direct management role in AMV BBDO’s day-to-day operations. He was also responsible for helping AMV BBDO expand their digital capabilities, launching AMV Pulse, the social media offering, and AMV Analytics, the digital analytics offering. Both businesses drove double-digit growth in digital revenue. As a career highlight, Adam took the stage with his team in Cannes to accept the 2011 Inaugural Cannes Grand Prix for Creative Effectiveness for the “Walkers Sandwich” campaign.
