Kirodian to oversee Everest’s creative operations in Delhi

Satish Kirodian has donned a new cap. The creative consultant from FCB-Ulka has been appointed creative director for Everest’s Delhi office.

Kirodian’s career in advertising spans well over a decade. When he started out in 1992, he worked with Grey Worldwide (then Trikaya Grey) for about three years. Another three years were spent at Ambience before he moved to O&M for close to four years. Kirodian has also worked with Saatchi & Saatchi for a year. At FCB-Ulka, he was a creative consultant.

“His decade and more experience in the industry across various agencies is a huge advantage to us. His background in art adds to the advantage,” says N Padmakumar, national creative director of Everest.

Kirodian will now be required to develop creative strategies for both new businesses and existing businesses in Delhi. His mandate will include accounts such as Indian Airlines, Vishal Megamart, Ansals and KS Oils.

Kirodian says about his new work role, “The larger responsibility, with even bigger challenges, creates a great opportunity for growth. And it is this growth that makes me look forward to my time with Everest.”

Earlier Kirodian’s portfolio consisted of brands such as Zee, Castrol, Voltas and Royal Challenge beer. Kirodian is a graduate from JJ School of Arts, Mumbai.
