The Foundry has promoted Annie Price as its creative director in Melbourne.

With over 18 years in the industry, Price will now work with The Foundry’s Melbourne-based clients as well as working closely with the company’s executive creative director, Ian Brown.

“Annie was no slouch when she joined us, but in just 12 months she has developed into the fully fledged creative director that everyone she has ever worked with knew she would become. She has earned the great respect of her team and of her clients,” says Brown.

On top of her promotion, Price was elected by her peers to the Melbourne Advertising and Design Club committee.

Price will work with The Foundry’s award-winning creative team to develop campaigns for clients such as Snooze, Guardian Pharmacies, STIHL, Australian Weaving Mills and Fresh Life.

“I’m particularly passionate about the Melbourne ad industry and I’m delighted to have the opportunity with MADC to put something back at a local level,” says Price.
