Virginia Hyland handed Havas Media CEO role as Matt Houltham departs
Havas Media Group Australia has named Virginia Hyland as its new chief executive in a leadership change that has seen Matt Houltham exit the business.
The appointment comes just three months after Havas acquired Hyland’s then-independent agency that carried her name.

Virginia Hyland was described as ‘an impressive industry leader’
Houltham had been in the CEO role for only 12 months following four years as group managing director of Havas Melbourne.
