Former Havas boss Anthony Gregorio has joined Saatchi & Saatchi as CEO as Michael Rebelo shifts focus to his Publicis Communications CEO position.
Gregorio spent nearly eight years at Havas and left the business in October 2017 when Host and Havas merged to become one agency.
Gregorio had been tipped for a number of roles in the Sydney market, including McCann CEO and Y&R CEO.
Rebelo was appointed to Publicis Communications ANZ CEO in February 2017 and has been working across the role, as well as his Saatchi & Saatchi CEO role, for over a year.
He will remain as a chairman of Saatchi & Saatchi.
The move follows the resignation of Publicis Communications ANZ chairman Andrew Baxter and a wider restructure of the Publicis leadership team.
