Team MediaMotive

I have the pleasure of managing this very smart team of internet advertising professionals. My role is to clear obstacles, provide strategic direction and (hopefully) encourage a culture of fun and achievement.

And if I’m honest my job is a relatively simple one - I try to get out of the way. This is a team that knows what it wants and how to get it.

Prior to joining Carsales.com Ltd in 2008, I’d held a number of senior roles in the Australian online advertising industry. This is definitely the best of them.

I was originally a native of the UK before becoming a happy Sydneysider for a decade and am now a contented Melburnian.  

My day to day role involves working with the senior team to make sure we are servicing our advertising agency partners efficiently from both a sales and delivery perspective. I also spend a lot of time liaising with agency directors and key stakeholders on future strategies and ‘best practice’ whilst keeping up with industry news and developments. Essentially, I make sure we are providing the right solutions to each agency, solutions that are relevant to the current media climate and matched to the agencies style.

I'm passionate about Media in general and have worked across print, TV and digital in my 13 years in Media sales. Outside work I enjoy spending time with my children, playing golf, watching football, movies and going to the gym.

I live in Bondi in Sydney with my partner and I have two sons.

My role is to help drive the innovation and management of products for the Sales Team and aid with go-to-market strategies to maximise revenue opportunities. The Product & Technology Team helps facilitate the implementation of these products including sponsorships, microsites and integrated opportunities, retargeting and so on, to go live through our internal Product Management Group and Development Teams. The team delivers across all facets of Product Development from concept and design through to implementation, delivery and reporting.

I started my digital career in the UK in hosting and streaming some 18 years ago. I then moved to BBC Technology managing client projects for digital broadcasting and live streaming. Since moving to Australia I have continued in the online media business working for Sensis MediaSmart in online advertising and I am now here at Carsales helping deliver complex and relevant advertising solutions.

I'm a great lover of travelling with my family in far flung places. I’m also a very keen golfer playing every week and a real lover of fine beers and ales... No Carlton Draft is not a fine ale.

My role is to lead the data, research, measurement and insight arm of the business. To connect the dots, tell the story and propagate insights to agencies, clients, and internally through the various Carsales.com businesses. I also represent Carsales and MediaMotive on the IAB Measurement Council and IAB Mobile Advertising Council.

I’ve worked my whole life in either technology and or digital media roles.  Previously managing commercial strategy at the joint venture of Business Spectator, Crikey.com.au and SmartCompany, amongst others, and digital planning and strategy in advertising agencies ZenithOptimedia and OMD before this.

My loves outside of technology are pop culture, film, collecting records, modernism, history and politics. And my beautiful, talented wife-to-be Em of course.

The leadership of the Victorian advertising operations team and operational direction of the Adops group from the management of workflow, campaign management, quality assurance, inventory management, compliance and testing best practices and process improvement.

I work to ensure that the MediaMotive portfolio of business delivers all the campaign requirements of our clients.  

The development, implementation and direction of various vendor, client and company projects, testing and consideration of new ad software, innovations and vendor technologies, site acquisitions/ partnerships and the associated technical set up, project management of ad server migrations for desktop and mobile activity.

Prior to joining MediaMotive, I studied Business Advertising, headed up several projects for the disadvantaged community such as a computer training program for The Brotherhood of St Lawrence facilitating group and one on one classes, held various sales, marketing and account management roles in print and radio and am the occasional wedding singer.

I’m passionate about and active in Social Media and Community Management, Digital Marketing tools and Content Management and design for various blogging platforms. I love writing, eating too much; travelling to the US for fried chicken and recently released an award winning cookbook.

My role at MediaMotive is the NSW and QLD Group Sales Manager; I’ve been here for 5 years as the division has grown from start up phase to one of the top publishers in Australia. In a snapshot our role is to recommend online advertising campaigns for a huge variety of clients with a major focus on the Automotive Industry. Furthermore, my team of 6 works with the major media agencies and clients directly to develop specific campaigns that help build brand awareness while ensuring effective ROI.

Some of my recent industry achievements have been; nominated as a finalist for the B&T Young Achiever of the Year 2011 and Mindshare Digital Rep of the Year 2010.

Prior to MediaMotive/Carsales I worked for Ambient Advertising for over 3 years to help build their business from a relatively new company into the leading Ambient/Experiential advertising company in Australia.  I have a Bachelor of Media from Macquarie University and am looking to grow my skills through further higher education.

As a Group Sales Manager I have the pleasure of managing a team of key account managers, execs & co-ordinators; ensuring we are providing our clients with tailored online solutions that deliver superior return on investment. We achieve this by understanding the clients business, products, the market and overall business objectives as well as providing ongoing support to our client portfolio. We’re here to help your business grow & make you look good!

I studied Psychology & Marketing/Management at uni and have been with MediaMotive since 2009, having worked across both the direct & agency teams. It’s amazing to think we were only a team of 8 when I started & have cracked 55+ in little over 3 years!

Personally I love anything that involves the right side of the brain - I have been singing for years, trained to play piano, flute and guitar. I love dancing & all things art!

I am lucky to have two homes in life: born & bred on the luscious Croatian coastlines where most of my family still reside & Melbourne having lived here since 1996.

My role as a Group Sales Manager at MediaMotive VIC is to ensure my media agencies are provided with the most up-to-date research, opportunities and customized digital strategies, enabling them to maximize efficiency and deliver their client’s objectives.

With a background in public relations, over the last five years I have developed a sound knowledge of online marketing sales and digital strategies. My exposure to both an agency and publisher environment has provided the perfect platform to strengthen my knowledge and skills. With a strong focus on customer service and sales, I believe making my clients life easier is quintessential to my role.  In the wise words of Bob Hooey, "if you are not taking care of your customer, your competitor will."

My immediate functional area is Sales and Group Management. Over the past nine years in media, over a third at Carsales, I have endeavoured to build a well-rounded skill set by developing a strong understanding of all facets of media and most predominately the digital sales landscape. My daily duties involve managing my team and our portfolio, ensuring we provide exemplary service and solutions to our clients.

My career highlight without doubt was being named one of B&T’s 30 under 30 for 2012.

After finishing my University Degree in Communications, Marketing and Advertising, I started my media career at TMS on the Toyota & Lexus accounts, where I developed a strong foundation for automotive media communications. My next steps took me travelling overseas and then onto publisher land, where I pursued a career in the online space as an Account Manager at News Digital Media.

My hobbies include; Zumba, snowboarding, golf, and puppy club. I love shopping (online & in store), travelling, cocktails and concerts. 

You may think that I am just the Direct Sales Manager at MediaMotive, working with a high performing advertising sales team to provide the dealerships of the Australian Southern States with effective advertising solutions allowing them to engage with the biggest in market car audience in Australia. Well you are right - but wait, there’s more!

To get here I had to get some runs on the board. I spent the last 8 years working for Nova 100.3fm here in Melbourne, with 5 of those years managing their sales team. Prior to that I was selling media advertising in New Zealand. Yes I am a kiwi and go the all blacks!

Life’s not all about the wonderful world of advertising though. The weekends are spent playing golf, renovating our home and, along with my wonderful wife Danielle keeping our young son Jack entertained.  

As General Sales Manager for the Northern states I manage a sales team that works with Dealer and Direct clients. My role is to assist the team in creating new business while servicing existing clients.

Prior to this role I was in the car industry for 10 years as General Manager for a multi franchise dealership. This experience allows me to help dealers sell more cars by providing effective and relevant advertising opportunities and solutions.

Outside work I’m passionate about sports, in particular basketball in which I am on the Board of Directors for the Sydney Kings as well as play twice a week in local competitions. I also love any type of motorsport and I participate in motocross as well as car and motorbike track days.

I am the Group Manager of Industry Display Advertising. My key responsibilities are strengthening our relationships with existing and prospective clients and building advertising solutions which meet their marketing objectives.

Prior to joining Carsales I spent 3 years growing Australian Rural Property Classifieds, farmbuy.com and also launched a web developer marketplace called sitepointmarket.com.

In a previous life I worked as an Engineer for US mining and construction manufacturer Caterpillar Inc. I was introduced to online when I managed their used equipment portal CatUsed throughout Asia-Pacific.

I grew up on a farm in Western Victoria and escape the rat race as often as I can!

My role is quite varied however my main responsibilities are the maintenance and ongoing improvement of MediaMotive’s infrastructure, workflows and integration of new technologies. I work closely with Operations, Product and support the Sales Team with any technical escalations. This involves the management of our Sales and Operations workflow systems which are provided by external parties.

In addition, other duties include requirements gathering for infrastructure upgrades (AdSlot, DoubleClick, Eyeblaster), project management for any platform integrations and overall responsibility for our ad network security and data integrity. I currently ensure the accuracy of the revenue sheet controlled by Carsales Finance Department and provide all necessary financial reports to MediaMotive Management and the Carsales Board, including yield reports.

My career in media started in London, where I spent 6 years of my life. I was involved in TV and online ad management for Cartoon Network, Boomerang and TCM across Europe. On return to Melbourne, I worked at Mindshare as a Campaign Manager before moving to GroupM as a System Administrator where I spent 4 years before joining Carsales. My passions in life are anything gadgety, and all things Apple (yes I am a Geek).

Geographically I reside in the Sydney MediaMotive office as the Ad Operations Manager (Northern States). I have the privilege of leading the NSW Advertising Operations (Ad Ops) Team who look after the advertising operations of NSW and QLD accounts. The day-to-day operation of the Ad Ops team includes but is not limited to: inventory management, campaign management (trafficking, performance, optimisations), and reporting. Another core function of my role is to ensure all workflow processes are well developed, communicated and engaged to promote efficient and smooth operations. I also work closely with the product team to support the integration of new advertising units across our network of sites. One interesting part of my role is working with the Sydney MediaMotive office to provide general support and counsel/education to the sales team on all aspects of product.

Before all of these exciting and life changing experiences, I was a menacing college student in Malaysia. I was also proud student at  the University of Wollongong where I spent two years.

I enjoy good company and good food, movies, and travelling. Swimming, badminton and snooker are my favourite sports

My role at MediaMotive is a Senior Account Manager within the NSW Dealer Display Team.  Essentially my role is to work with motor dealers to deliver innovative advertising solutions whilst enhancing their brand and contributing to the success of their business. 

Prior to coming on board with MediaMotive, I held an Account Director role in an advertising agency specialising in the automotive industry.  In this role I presented advertising strategies and campaigns inclusive of online advertising and many different other mediums such as print, radio and TV.  My responsibilities also included strengthening relationships with existing and prospective clients. 

I am passionate about digital marketing and advertising and am quite amazed by it all.  I am very pleased to be a part of a business that allows me to educate and work with a measurable and effective advertising solution. With a strong focus on exceptional customer service my objective is to continue to provide motor dealers with tailored digital strategies allowing them to communicate with their target markets.

My role is to provide Queensland Dealers with industry best practice online advertising to ensure that their marketing dollars are fully maximised.

Effective marketing campaigns result in dealers selling more cars – and that’s what we’re all about.

The shift to digital advertising has seen dealership focus rapidly change and makes it possible for our customers to become advocates for carsales.com.

Prior joining the carsales.com team I worked in the sales and marketing department for GM Holden for many years which assists me in understanding dealers’ advertising objectives.

After hours I love spending time with my family, travelling, playing golf and watching all sporting events.

As a Senior Account Manager in the Direct team, I work with my clients to effectively tailor online advertising campaigns to suit their needs and communicate to their target market.  I love learning about my clients businesses and advising them on the benefits of display advertising, helping them to build their brand online. 

Mostly I look after WA, Tas and non dealer in Vic.  My role extends further to assess and monitor my client's activity with us, and to also explore the market for new businesses to partner with.

My background is made up of a combination of real estate, telco and online.  Prior to carsales, I was at the REIV (Real Estate Institute of Victoria) as a Business Development Executive for online services.  This was my introduction to the ever changing world of online.  Carsales is a very different ball game, online on steroids I call it. I love it! 

Outside of work, I’m passionate about Food, Fashion and the Arts.  Exercise unfortunately is not one of my passions, however my motto is "healthy mind healthy body", so I keep active with a combination of exercise..  Jogging, yoga and dancing.. (my fav..)

My role within MediaMotive as National Sales Manager for the Marine division (boatsales.com.au & BoatPoint.com.au) is to work with both existing and new prospective clients to tailor and deliver effective Display campaigns on Australia’s Number 1 & 2 Marine sites.

Prior to joining Carsales Ltd in June 2008, I managed my own Finance and Insurance site, which looked after F&I for a number of leading marine dealerships as well as direct clients. It was through my experience managing my own site that I learnt how important it is to have a strategic online marketing strategy.

I live on the Gold Coast with my wife and two sons (aged 4 & 1) and enjoy family time, catching up with friends, boating and going to the gym.

I’m an Account Manager in the Sydney team, looking after a large group of media agencies in NSW and QLD. My responsibility is to manage our relationships with them and to maximise the effectiveness of their clients’ media spend, as well as obtain growth by staying on top of new trends and opportunities. I really enjoy MediaMotive as we have a great culture, quality solutions and a top team.

My career life began in technology sales, then I made the move to digital media with Reed Business International. I’ve now been in digital for a number of years and am passionate about the space; it’s most definitely the way forward.

Getting to know me outside of work, I’m a massive sports fan. AFL is #1, followed by Cricket and American Football. I relax by spending time with friends and family, usually over a nice meal and an even nicer red wine or scotch. I love to head to the beach or get outdoors (don’t think camping – I’m no Bear Grylls) and I dabble in and appreciate music and cars. Lastly, my motto would be: enjoy yourself along the way.

I’m an Account Manager within the NSW Agency Sales Team and have the pleasure of working across a number of key media agencies. I’m responsible for delivering innovative and strategic online solutions to my clients, ensuring that I understand their business objectives which helps them to achieve optimal campaign performance and tangible results. Additionally my role is to establish and grow strong working relationships with key stake holders and to provide commendable service. 

I completed a Bachelor of Business degree at UTS in 2009, majoring in Advertising and Promotions Management & Communications.

On a personal note, I am most passionate about my big crazy family, travelling, shopping, exploring beautiful parts of Sydney, great food, and enjoying a fun night out with friends!

As an Account Manager in the Sydney MediaMotive team, my role is varied but focuses on managing the relationship with our largest agency group. My day-to-day responsibilities are to provide client service that goes above and beyond standard, maintain all campaigns to ensure not only delivery but excellent performance and collaborating with the agency/client to create and execute their digital strategy.

After finishing my degree in Marketing and Communications, I travelled a little around Europe with my sister, and not long after started my career in outdoor advertising. It was a great starting point where I developed a strong foundation for media communications and sales. My next step was in to the online space where I’ve stayed and never looked back.

Some of my favourite things are great food, the beach, cats, and having a laugh over a few drinks.

As an Account Manager in the agency team, my day to day involves working with our fabulous agency clients to prepare strategies and campaigns that utilise display advertising across the Carsales Network. I also ensure that everything is running smoothly and that our clients are happy! It is a fast paced business and an exciting team to be a part of.  

My media career began with several years in the display advertising team at Trademe.co.nz (the NZ equivalent of Quicksales/Ebay). I then spent 2.5 years at OMD (media agency) in both NZ and Melbourne before coming back to my publisher roots and joining MediaMotive in July 2012.

I’ve also managed to fit in several trips exploring Europe and South East Asia with travel being one of my passions (along with music and snowboarding to name just a few)!

As a MediaMotive Account Manager, I am responsible for managing agency accounts and selling tailored advertising solutions across the Carsales Network. My aim is to grow upon existing, valuable relationships and provide the most effective online solutions to achieve the best possible campaign results.

7 years ago, I commenced my media and advertising career at ACP Magazines, followed by a niche publishing firm and then AMP Capital Shopping Centres. With print and outdoor advertising experience under my belt, I thought it was time to jump onto the digital bandwagon!

Work aside, I love spending time with my family and friends. Throw me on a wakeboard, hand me a fishing rod or pass me a vino and some cheese and I’m one happy chappy!

I work across the bike and caravan sites in MediaMotive. I have been involved in the bike industry for over 7 years, the past two with MediaMotive. I deal with all levels from both industries - manufacturers to dealers to accessory companies and anyone else involved with bikes and caravans.

While these two industries may seem worlds apart, they are very similar in that both have been served well by print for a number of years. It’s an exciting and rewarding time to help the bike and caravan industries follow their customers online.

Most weekends you can find me running the various trails around Melbourne. I am a keen trail runner and I have completed a few marathons. My next goal is to complete an Ironman and an ultra marathon.

My role as an Account Manager across the Industry and Marine network consists of finding solutions for clients to assist them in reaching and influencing their audience (people looking to buy trucks, tractors, machinery and boats etc). I also work to ensure my clients get the best return on investment for their advertising spend.

I enjoy dealing directly with clients and finding out about their business, products and objectives before advising them on a targeted advertising solution so they can best reach their audience and in doing so grow their business.

In my spare time I like watching movies and on weekends I enjoy playing football.

I work out of NSW as an Account Executive; my role is vast and covers many different aspects of the sales process. Automotive to Finance and Insurance, my job is to assist one of the largest media agencies in Australia - GroupM by providing them with the best possible online advertising solutions across our extensive network. Working closely with the Account Manager we aim to fortify relationships, learn and develop a strong understanding of our clients and their media objectives. We’re also constantly looking for new and improved ways to strengthen our clients brand within the market.

I graduated from uni in 2009 finishing my student career with a Bachelor of Marketing and Public Relations. I have worked at MediaMotive for over two and half years and in this time have come to love the online world of advertising and all the opportunities it presents.

On the weekend you will most likely catch me downing a good wine in the company of my friends planning our next getaway.

Graduating Macquarie University with a Bachelor of Media and an internship with News Life Media, I’m fresh to the industry and keen to make my mark. After falling into the digital media sphere I have developed a strong passion for media sales and intend on making it my long-term career.

Graduating high school in 2009, university in 2012 then moving straight on to MediaMotive I’m the baby of the office - always reminded. I love creating and baking desserts, completing adrenalin activities and watching all movies. I also wish I spoke French fluently.

I recently joined the MediaMotive team in the role of Agency Sales Coordinator. My role involves supporting the Account Managers, monitoring and managing various online campaigns, reporting on campaign effectiveness and delivering progress reports to our clients.

Prior to working with MediaMotive, I completed a Bachelor of Arts majoring in Media and Communications at The University of Melbourne.

My position at MediaMotive has reassured me that I want to pursue a career in the world of media – especially in the digital sector because I enjoy its fast moving energy and spontaneity!

Outside of work I enjoy spending time with friends and family, reading, watching movies, eating etc – anything to keep me busy!

As an enthusiastic individual, I love the idea of learning about different cultures. With my family back in London, travelling is and will always be a strong passion of mine.

I joined MediaMotive as an Ad Operations Executive within the Melbourne Ad Operations team in late 2012. My role primarily involves ad serving and campaign management (ad trafficking, optimisation and reporting) across the Carsales Auto Network; working closely with the Campaign Managers and Sales Coordinators.

Prior to working with MediaMotive, I spent a year and half at Kidspot as a trafficker/campaign executive. I've also spent 5 years with perfumeconnection.com.au working in various roles for their online retail shop. Still relatively new to online media advertising, I’m eager to learn and absorb as much knowledge from the group of talented and driven people at MediaMotive.

Originally from Malaysia, I came to Australia in early 00s for uni and have stayed back for work ever since. On a personal note, I love spending time with my family & friends and of course anything to do with food.
