Former Edelman Australia chief client officer Amber Scotto Di Perta has joined Optus in a communications leadership role, eight months after leaving the PR agency amid an industry-wide wave of layoffs.
Scotto Di Perta has assumed the role of Optus associate director of media and corporate affairs, filling the maternity position of Nicole Higgins, reporting to Jane McNamara, executive general manager of external communications and stakeholder engagement.
Speaking to Mumbrella, Scotto Di Perta said she deliberately took time to find the right role, doing fractional marketing work and studying at the Marketing Academy in the meantime, before deciding an in-house position was the next step.
