We’ve appointed an online concept director as we continue to develop and enhance our full service digital marketing offer.
Grzegorz Kozakiewicz is an accomplished award-winning art director and designer who joins us from Allen Design Group where he was head of digital creative.

His most recent accolade was the Digital Yorkshire Award 2009 for Best Game with Pencil Rebel www.pencilrebel.com which combines mixed media, stop motion animation claymation and Adobe Flash to create a compelling interactive experience.
Pencil Rebel was also shortlisted in the Grand Master Flash category at E4.com’s Golden Joystick Awards and was recognised at a variety of other international industry awards including winning the Uber Flash Award 2009 sponsored by leading Dutch agency Achtung!. In February 2010 Grzegorz will speak at the globally renowned FITC (Flash In The Can Conference) in Amsterdam. His most recent piece of work was fuse8’s Christmas viral ‘Powered by sprouts’.
fuse8 managing director Nigel Hunter said: “Grzegorz is an outstanding conceptual thinker who is also able to transform his thoughts into convincing, highly effective applications. Combining his skills with our existing digital full service offer means we will enhance our ability to respond tactically to any strategy that we develop for our clients. This is a constantly evolving area and with Grzegorz joining our innovations team we will ensure we remain at the forefront of digital marketing.”
Commenting on his appointment, Grzegorz said: “ fuse8 has really risen to prominence over the past 12 months and has built its reputation on providing outstanding, effective work across all of the disciplines it offers. The opportunity to become part of the team driving innovation forward within the business was too good to miss and I am looking forward to further enhancing fuse8’s online creative output.”
