Dentsu Aegis appoints acquisition specialist Victoria Gehrig
Dentsu Aegis has created a new role specialising in streamlining the acquisition and integration of purchased agencies as the group embarks on an “aggressive growth and M&A strategy”.
Victoria Gehrig, former national general manager for Isobar Australia, will take on the new role which will see her managing the group’s growth and helping onboard new acquisitions.
Reporting directly to Simon Ryan, Gehrig will also be in charge of “pursuing identified targets”.
