Publicis Production US appoints John Doris as EVP, Production & Craft.
Publicis Production has named John Doris as EVP, Production & Craft.
Doris brings nearly two decades of senior production experience to the role, partnering with creative and production leadership across the network to drive craft excellence on the most complex and ambitious work.
Doris has spent his career building production teams and leading award-winning work across some of the industry's most respected agencies, most recently as Head of Production at Omnicom Production, where he led a team of more than 80 production specialists. Before that, he served as Head of Integrated Production at TBWA\Chiat\Day New York, building and scaling a 30-person in-house production studio that became both a creative engine and a key revenue driver for the agency.
Throughout his career, Doris has also been a champion of emerging filmmaking talent, spending more than a decade at Saatchi & Saatchi producing award-winning campaigns and helping shape the next generation of directors through the globally renowned New Directors' Showcase.
As EVP, Production & Craft, Doris will operate as a trusted partner to both production and agency creative leadership across the Publicis Production network. He will bring senior stewardship to high-profile and high-ambition projects across film, content, integrated, experiential, digital, and emerging formats, where craft, complexity, and execution are critical. Central to the role will be Doris's ability to activate an extensive network of creative and production industry relationships built over decades at the highest levels of the industry, partnering with senior production leadership to ensure complex, high-stakes projects are set up to reach their fullest potential, and that craft is never sacrificed when the work demands both ambition and scale.

Our clients come to us because they want to make something truly exceptional, and John's experience, creative judgment, and deep industry relationships open up new possibilities for what we can achieve together.
