Marketing agency Oliver has appointed Lisa Bonney as its new global CMO.
Lisa joins Oliver, part of Inside Ideas Group, from Japanese technology company Konica Minolta where she was European head of client services. At Konica she led client relationships, working with a number of blue-chip names including Heineken, Renault, BMW and Nestlé.
Lisa brings with her nearly three decades of experience, including a 15-year tenure at agency The Marketing Store.
Simon Martin, founder, chairman and CEO at Inside Ideas Group, said: “Lisa’s appointment is the latest element to drive Oliver’s development strategy. As we grow, we need someone who’s been at the coalface and knows how to deliver for world-class clients over a range of sectors. Lisa has proven, time and time again, that she’s more than capable of doing that and more.”
Bonney added: “Watching Oliver’s growth from afar has been inspiring. The on-site model means I can liaise closer than ever before with clients to deliver efficient and cost-effective solutions to challenges in real time. I am not only excited by the growth and pace of Oliver, but also the endless business opportunities we can solve, both creatively and strategically, by working closely with clients on the inside.”
Oliver was ranked number one in this year’s B2B Marketing Agencies Benchmarking Report.
