Great move. Matt is one of the very best.
Well done Mike and congratulations Matt. Well deserved mate.
These promotions, whilst very well deserved, are not really enough. They should be in charge of the whole Havas Group, instead of the London based [Edited under Mumbrella’s comment moderation policy].
Richly deserved. Well done M&M.
Congratulations guys, a dynamic duo, well deserved.
Congratulations Mike and Matt, well deserved after many years of delivering great campaigns for clients and inspiring teams!
