Commenting on David’s new position, Paul Heath – Chairman & CEO of O&M Asia Pacific said: “Having been within our ranks for more than 20 years, David knows our clients, our people, and our network.I can’t think of a better suited, more qualified, and more liked person to take the reigns of our reputation management as we continue to evolve and drive growth across our 37 offices in Asia Pacific.”

For the last 3 years, Mayo has been at the regional helm of Bates CHI & Partners, a sister agency network of O&M formed in 2013 as a result of a joint venture between Bates and CHI & Partners – one of the UK’s most awarded independent agencies at Cannes.

“The role of the agency continues to evolve as brands come to terms with the need to be more immediate and responsive to consumer trends.

So I’m looking forward to working with our leadership teams around the region to drive that differentiation, and ensure that O&M maintains its competitive edge in every market”.
