VIVIAN BRYANT – Director

Born sometime in the 70s, Vivian established Brand Spanking in the spare room of a Ponsonby flat in 2002 and has recently been working on projects for Diageo, 2 Degrees, ACP and Turners and Growers, amongst others. Her past life includes studying Graphic Design at Whitecliffe Art School, a six year stint in Japan (modeling/ hostessing/promotions) and European travels in a yellow Bedford van called Bumble! Viv has also dabbled in stunt work and film and television, working on Xena, Hercules, Young Hercules, Cleopatra 2525, Shortland Street and King Kong. She has a particular liking for pies and Veuve Clicquot, with her hubby Nathan, daughter Sohia, and attack dog Teddy not too far behind.

JEREMY HUNT – Director

Husband to long-suffering Christina and father to MJ and Molly the sometimes office Labradoodle, Jeremy merged his nationwide campus marketing operation into Brand Spanking in early 2004. As well as being Brand Spanking’s resident accountant and bush lawyer his recent client projects include work for ASB Bank, Sensodyne, Snapper and MIT. Dig deep into his past and you’ll find everything from a degree in Swedish to time spent lecturing corporate strategy at the University of Auckland Business School. Jeremy’s pet hates include shoes, shaving, and the random use of apostrophes, while he is at his happiest floating around the Aitutaki lagoon.

RICH ADAMS – General Manager

Rich took the reins in May 2011 after swapping Guildford for Mission Bay and emigrating to NZ with his Kiwi wife and family. Prior to departing the UK he was a director and founding partner at Sense Marketing one of London’s top independent Experiential Agencies and winner of the 2010 FMBE Agency of the Year (Field Marketing & Brand Experience Awards).
