Myles Peacock has been named CEO of global content production company CreativeDrive, effective immediately. Peacock joins CreativeDrive from Omnicom Group's global implementation and production agency, where he was President, Americas, Global Brand Leader and original Worldwide COO and Co-Founder.
"We are pleased to welcome Myles Peacock to CreativeDrive. Myles has the proven ability to turn strategy into effective solutions for the present and future as demonstrated over a 20-plus year career spanning three continents and three industries including merchant banking, publishing and marketing services," said Jeff Drazan, Managing Partner at Bertram Capital and Chairman of the Board at CreativeDrive.
Peacock joins CreativeDrive as the content production agency further expands its motion production, social content and digital services while continuing to build its photography business. Late last year the company acquired Hudson Studios, further expanding CreativeDrive's customer base and capabilities.
"I am thrilled to be a part of the CreativeDrive team," said Peacock. "It's an extremely exciting time to be in our industry as client content requirements are expanding alongside increasing channel fragmentation. The need for smarter more relevant content production that can efficiently and effectively be captured, curated and executed with platform specialism is critical. With CreativeDrive's portfolio strength and depth, we are a well-positioned collaborative partner to support the growing demand."
CreativeDrive is recognized for helping clients produce content by building end-to-end efficiency into the creative process traversing campaign strategy, content strategy, creative execution, photography, motion, audio, digital production, dedicated content creation studios, rental studios and technology services.
"Myles has extensive experience in delivering highly-compelling content on a global scale by integrating efficient business process design, tailored technology work flow systems and proactive cost management discipline," said Jared Ruger, Partner at Bertram Capital and Member of the Board of Directors at CreativeDrive. "His demonstrated content production expertise, coupled with his deep focus on client engagement and practical problem solving, will help our clients better navigate the growing complexities of managing brand messaging and content delivery across platforms and borders."
