In his new role, Peter will lead the agency partnerships team in the region, developing localised programs, measurement projects, and training. He will work closely with the key agency stakeholders on programmatic best practices, technology partnerships, and additional projects. Peter’s experience leading programmatic planning and optimisation, managing digital operations and working with agencies across Australia, New York, and Singapore will be vital in his new role. Previously, he was Head of Platforms and Capabilities at OMG Singapore. Before that, he was Director, Programmatic Planning and Optimisation at OMD, New York. Peter started his career as a Screen Trader in Australia.
