Singapore - Ogilvy & Mather has promoted Tham Khai Meng to the role of worldwide creative director and chairman of its creative council.
Tham has been co-chairman and regional ECD for Ogilvy & Mather Asia Pacific since 1999, and will maintain a supervisory role in this region. His new role, effective 1 January, will see him relocate to the network's New York office to work along Miles Young, Ogilvy's global CEO.
"Miles and I have been a team in Asia for a long time, and we both reckon that renewing our partnership will make for some spectacular success on the bigger stage," Tham said.
An Ogilvy spokesperson said an announcement on a senior creative promotion to head APAC will be forthcoming.
