Interpublic Group agency Golin has promoted Carol Yeung as managing director of Hong Kong, as a successor to Jane Morgan who will leave the firm after six years.

Yeung was formerly the vice president of the company. In her new position, Yeung will report to Golin’s APAC president Darren Burns.

Deciding to leave Golin to relocate with her family, Morgan has transformed the agency into one recognised as an industry leader. She departs having established Golin’s client leadership programme in APAC, according to the press release.

Burns said: “Morgan has been transformative for Golin, and I thank her for everything she has done for us, including mentoring Yeung for this role. Yeung brings with her a new era of leadership in Asia; her challenger spirit and unequivocal business intelligence has earned her a reputation of excellence. She has shown herself to be a changemaker and an inspiration to her team – I can’t wait to see what’s next,” Burns added.

Of her promotion Yeung said, “I am so excited to lead our team to further create change that matters – through our work, for our people and the industry itself. I have been living and breathing Golin’s unique culture, pioneering spirit and passion across the past four years and see immense opportunity here in Hong Kong. I am looking forward to delivering more insight and purpose-driven work for our clients both here and across the region”.

Earlier in March this year, Golin has appointed Lottie Longford as director of marketing and communications APAC for multiple Golin Group agency brands, including Golin and DeVries Global.

In this newly created role, Longford will be the Asia Pacific lead to drive brand positioning and initiatives for both agency brands in the region, working closely with global, APAC and market leaders. She also helps identify opportunities, support the employee value proposition, content creation, internal communications and overseeing media.

Before her new position, Longford was director at Golin Hong Kong. She led the team’s health and wellness accounts, having transferred from the agency’s London location in 2016.
