The agency will create a campaign for the brand, which will include TV and online, to launch in April.

Maxus will continue to handle media planning and buying for the brand.

Michael Saunders, the managing director of Jackpotjoy, said: "We have been tremendously impressed with Isobel's creativity and its shared ambition for the brand."
