Saatchi & Saatchi Australia has appointed Georgia Jones as general manager of its Melbourne office.
Jones joins from Clemenger BBDO Melbourne where she was head of business management working with clients including Belong, BMW and NAB. She has previously held client-side roles in London, with a focus on business transformation, data-driven marketing and customer experience.
Jones replaces Mark Cochrane who was recently appointed CEO of Saatchi & Saatchi New Zealand.
“Georgia completes our senior executive team in Melbourne and is going to be a great leader alongside Alex Speakman our Executive Strategy Director, Simon Bagnasco our Executive Creative Officer and Lucy Trengove our Head of Production,” Saatchi & Saatchi Australia CEO Anthony Gregorio says.
“Georgia has a brilliant reputation and made an immediate impact on us when we met her. It’s an impact she will make on our partners, people and product. She joins with the agency having amazing momentum on the creative awards front, so we are excited about the future.”
