In addition to the previously-mentioned Writer opening, CLM in Boise is looking to add a Digital Media Coordinator to their team. From the job listing on their website:
CLM Marketing & Advertising is looking for a Digital Media Coordinator to join our digital media team in Boise, Idaho. The perfect candidate will be versed in the standard tools and skills of digital media buying, but even more importantly, they will be a continuous learner and creative problem solver who loves facing new challenges.
As 2019 came to a close we got word that veteran account manager Josh Mercaldo made the move to Rizen Creative.
Josh has spent the better part of the past two decades in the agency world, first with Mediaphex, which later merged to become Wirestone (now part of Accenture Interactive), then Publicis, followed by a decade-plus with Drake Cooper, and most recently CLM.
He is a graduate of Idaho State University, and lifelong Toronto Blue Jays fan.
We also got word that Max White has been promoted to Creative Director and Jessica Holmes to Associate Creative Director over at CLM, following the departure of John Liebenthal earlier this year. Separately, they’ve also added Morgan Weber to their team as a Digital Designer.

Order up creative inspo with extra cheese. On June 6th at noon, Boise Ad Fed delivers adSPEAK with Branson Veal at Beside Bardenay. As the creative director of MOD Pizza, he’ll serve up some fresh-baked ideas on challenger branding topped with social good strategy.
Founded in 2008 in Seattle, MOD Pizza is the original superfast pizza experience. In the crowded $46 billion US pizza market, every slice matters, and MOD’s focus on quality and putting people first is disrupting the industry. Now the quickest growing fast-casual pizza chain in the country, MOD is taking on everyone from newcomers Blaze and Pieology to mega-chains like Domino’s and Pizza Hut—all with the goal of doing good and giving back. It’s pizza with a purpose.
Branson Veal joined MOD Pizza as Executive Creative Director after 26 years as a top-award-winning director and creative director. In the last two years he’s led all design at MOD, opening over 200 stores. Branson believes that effective design and branding needs to stop people in their tracks. It’s crowded out there, differentiate.
