We're thrilled to share that our very own Shane Wolfsmith has been promoted to GB’s Managing Director!
Shane has been our Director of Client Services since 2016. In his new role, Shane will oversee all client experience disciplines across the agency, including account and project management and strategy teams to enhance the value, work and experience provided by our Griffs to our clients.
We live by our mission of “Leave Today Better than Yesterday”, and Shane is instrumental in helping us demonstrate that to our clients and community. A few words from Paige: “Shane has been an extraordinary leader and team member to many of us at Grady Britton over the last five years, and we are proud to announce his promotion. Shane leads with values and integrity, and gives of himself every day to our clients and the work. I look forward to our next chapter with Shane leading as Managing Director.”
And a few words from the man himself: “I’ve always cared deeply about the value Grady Britton can bring to our clients, not only based upon the work we do, but also the experiences we create through our partnerships with them. I couldn’t be more excited about the opportunity to create even more strategic, meaningful and efficient experiences for our clients through this new structure and team.”
While he’s been with us for five years, Shane has been a leader in the marketing and advertising industry for more than 25 years, having built a career in account management at global advertising agencies, including Leo Burnett and Saatchi & Saatchi, as well as smaller to mid-size agencies in Chicago, New York and Portland. He’s also on the 4A’s (American Association of Advertising Agencies) National Business Leadership Committee, as well as a Board of Trustees Member for Northwest Academy, an arts-infused independent school located in Portland.
Congrats to Shane!
