IAB appoints Alice Manners as new CEO

The IAB has announced the appointment of Alice Manners, GroupM Interaction’s former Asia Pacific COO, as the new CEO of the online industry body.

She replaces former CEO Paul Fisher who resigned to take a role at audience measurement service Nielsen, late last year.

“The online industry has gone through a huge transformation in the past year and with more change ahead, it is perfect that we’ll now have someone of Alice’s calibre and experience heading up our peak trade association for online,” said Mark Britt, IAB Australia chairman and CEO of Mi9.

“Being able to attract Alice with her 14 plus years local and international digital experience represents a real step change for IAB Australia.”
