The Script Room has announced the appointment of Shivani Gairola as executive creative consultant.

A long-time collaborator with The Script Room, Gairola now comes on board in a more permanent capacity. Her last full-time role was at Leo Burnett, where she served as associate creative director until 2021.

Ayyappan Raj, founder, The Script Room, said, “Shivani’s joining is long overdue! We have worked with her, as an independent writer, over the last four years, on successful campaigns for Groww, Nykaa and Tinder. Her strength is a combination of strong ideas and solid strategy. Shivani is an excellent writer and a very good friend; to have her part of our core creative team is a fantastic feeling. I am looking forward to creating great campaigns together.”

Gairola added, “In all these years of flying solo, The Script Room has been my favourite agency to collaborate with. Ayyappan and co. are genuinely some of the best folks in the advertising industry- at their work and at heart. So, I'm very excited to be doing what we do best together, just in a new capacity."

In a career spanning over 10 years, she has also worked with Sideways Consulting and ibs, among others.
