IAS management structure

Agency relationships will be managed by an Account Manager who will be the day to day contact between IAS and the agency. We will need to have a dedicated contact person within each agency that we represent.  The Account Manager will have responsibility for setting up appointments around the pitch or assessment processes, maintaining the agency’s profile within IAS. 

Over time, each agency discipline ie advertising, media, digital etc will be represented by a Discipline Head who will liaise with top management on the agency side. In addition the Discipline Head liaises and manages the client projects and expectations.

IAS is a fledgling company in South Africa and is run by Johanna McDowell, a marketing and advertising veteran with many years of experience in both South Africa and the United Kingdom.  Apart from drawing on the wisdom of partners in AAR, Johanna has assembled a team of experienced advertising, media and marketing consultants who will be brought on board at the appropriate time during a pitch or assessment process in order to assist at senior level.

Dan Moyane has considerable experience as a media owner and broadcaster as well as in relationships with agencies. His input would be sought as appropriate occasions arise.
