SINGAPORE – December 12, 2013 – After a lifetime working in the advertising industry, Bruce Matchett has decided to retire his position as Executive Creative Director at Saatchi & Saatchi Singapore and Malaysia to turn his attention to other creative projects, Saatchi & Saatchi Singapore said in a press release. 
 
Matchett joined Saatchi & Saatchi Singapore in 2010, and has also been Creative Director at Saatchi & Saatchi New Zealand. He has been a key part of the Saatchi & Saatchi family in the region and has led creative teams to globally recognised and award-winning work including Safeguard ‘Germ Stamp’ that was recognised at the Cannes Lions International Festival of Creativity and SpikesAsia this year.
 
“It’s been a great experience being here in Singapore. Saatchi & Saatchi is brimming with confidence once again and there are some wonderfully talented people now in this office. I wish them every success,” said Matchett.
 
“It was Bruce who convinced me to come to Singapore three years ago and work with him and the passionate and dedicated individuals at Saatchi & Saatchi Singapore,” said Paul Roebuck, CEO of Saatchi & Saatchi Singapore and Malaysia. “While the Agency has grown to 120 people since then, Bruce remains one of the most truly creative people I have had the good fortune to work with and he will be missed greatly.”
 
An announcement of a new ECD for Saatchi & Saatchi Singapore and Malaysia will be made in the New Year.
