Change of management at Wien Nord Serviceplan

Wien Nord Serviceplan, the creative agency in the House of Communication, is reorganizing its personnel. On July 1, Matthias Piskernik will take over the creative management of the company, succeeding Christian Hellinger. At the same time, the Management Board will be restructured.

Matthias Piskernik, who worked at the company from 2008 to 2011 and has been back since 2021, most recently as Creative Director, has been promoted to Managing Director: "I first set foot in this company 17 years ago. Now I get to continue writing its history with the help of a great team. I'm really looking forward to this new role. Advertising has never been as exciting as it is today and Serviceplan is the agency group of the moment."

"I would like to take this opportunity to thank Christian Hellinger on behalf of the House of Communication for his successful work for the agency. After many years, he has decided to leave Vienna North Serviceplan. I am all the more pleased that we have found an outstanding successor from within our own ranks in Matthias Piskernik, who will be responsible for the future of Wien Nord Serviceplan as Creative Managing Director together with Marion Janda," says a delighted Sebastian Bayer, CEO of the House of Communication Vienna.

As part of the change in leadership, the Management Board will also be restructured. The existing members of the board since 2022 - Managing Director Consulting Marion Janda and Head of Art Stefan Kopinits - will now be joined by Creative Director Matthias Piskernik and Philipp Dohnal, who was promoted to Client Service Director in April 2025.

“With the new structure of the Management Board, we are sending a clear signal for fast decision-making, but also stability and the value of a naturally grown corporate culture,” explains Janda. “We are convinced that this will provide the right impetus to make Wien Nord Serviceplan even more successful.”
