Gavin Shore, McCann Leeds’ new Executive Creative Director


Back in May, we revealed exclusively that McCann Worldgroup – which is part of the Interpublic Group – would be setting up in Leeds city centre on Wellington Street, adding to existing UK bases in London, Manchester, Birmingham, Bristol and Milton Keynes. 

At the time Mark Lund, the UK CEO of McCann Worldgroup, said that opening in Leeds represented “huge growth potential” and that it was a city “bursting with energy and talent”.  

McCann Worldgroup is a leading global marketing solutions network with working across more than 100 countries. The global network comprises McCann (advertising), MRM//McCann (data science/technology/relationship marketing), Momentum Worldwide (total brand experience), McCann Health (professional/dtc communications), CRAFT (production), PMK-BNC (entertainment/popular culture), Weber Shandwick (public relations) and FutureBrand (consulting/design).
