Lavender lures Didi Sutisna

Sutisna arrives from the head of planning role at Saatchi & Saatchi Malaysia and posts at Dutch hot shops KesselsKramer and Strawberry Frog.

Didi said, "What drew me to Lavender was its philosophy of consumer-centric ideas and solutions. It's not something that they just pay lip service to but it is the mantra of the whole organisation. Internally and externally."

"I love the fact that Lavender has a multi-discipline offering. With its design, advertising and digital capabilities the agency not only embraces the 'new world' of communication but it is ideally positioned at the forefront of shaping it."

Lavender is one of Australia's largest independent communications agency. It was created in 1997 by Will Lavender and has grown to over 90 full time staff. The agency is built around three core disciplines: design, advertising and digital.

Lavender said: "We create valuable experiences - usually online - then drive consumers to experience that value." Lavender's clients include Westpac, Microsoft, IKEA, News Ltd, BT, Luxottica.
