Digital Sea McCann appoints Roma Das as Indonesia managing director

Digital Sea McCann Indonesia has appointed Roma Das (pictured) as its new managing director, marking a leadership transition as the agency looks to accelerate growth and deepen its digital and content capabilities.

Das assumed the role in the first week of February, following more than a decade within the organisation. She reports directly to Bhaskar Rao, founder and CEO of the company.

In her new capacity, Das will oversee the agency’s overall business operations, with a mandate spanning growth, client partnerships, and creative excellence. Her remit also includes strengthening internal capabilities, expanding digital and content offerings, and ensuring strong performance across key accounts.

Speaking to MARKETING-INTERACTIVE, Das said she is focused on reinforcing client relationships while positioning the agency for the next phase of transformation.

“My focus is on strengthening client relationships, accelerating digital and content-led growth, and building a future-ready team,” she said. “For 2026, the plan is to expand capabilities, drive more integrated work, and deliver ideas that are both creative and commercially impactful.”

Das’ expertise is grounded in account and business management experience across major agencies, including J. Walter Thompson and MullenLowe. She previously served as business head at McCann Indonesia and as account director at FCB.

In 2020, Digital Sea Indonesia appointed Chetan Shetty as its managing director, where he oversaw both McCann Indonesia and FCB Jakarta. He later moved to Publicis Groupe in September 2025.
