Most recently with BBDO Guerrero as creative director/ head of copy since 2010, the move marks a homecoming for Dy who first joined JWT Manila as associate creative director in 2005.

Dave Ferrer, executive creative director of JWT Manila, said, “Joe Dy has always been one of the stellar talents at JWT Manila. His work has been recognised not only in local awards but also at Cannes, Adfest, and Media Spikes. His return to JWT Manila really beefs up our creative product.”

Dy previously spent eight years in Leo Burnett Manila, working on accounts such as McDonald's, Robinsons, Nissan Motors, Pfizer, Marlboro and Standard Chartered Bank.

Dy said, “It’s great to be back. Working with Dave Ferrer and rest of the JWT crew is always a privilege, and I’m stoked about the new challenges they have for me."

He added, “I’m also excited to be joining JWT’s new Internationalista community. It offers a unique chance to encounter different cultures and different people with varying working styles, while generating work that really travels in the process.”
