Artificial intelligence company GumGum has announced it has promoted Nadine Livesey (pictured above) to business development manager of publisher development for Australia and New Zealand.

Livesey, who was GumGum’s third hire in Australia, was previously sales manager for the ANZ region.

In her new role, she will be responsible for driving the expansion of GumGum’s growing premium publisher network in Australia and NZ.

Jon Stubley, managing director of GumGum for Australia and NZ, said: “Since launching in Australia less than two years ago, GumGum has rapidly expanded its operations as both advertisers and publishers realise the value that in-image and in-screen advertising can create.

“As one of our first employees, Nadine has played a key role in driving our advertising offer forward, and we look forward to leveraging her expertise and passion to develop our publisher footprint.”

Margot Bell will also be joining GumGum as a senior sales manager for the ANZ region. Bell was previously an account director at Pandora.

Commenting on her appointment, Stubley said: “Margot will bring a wealth of industry experience and professional rigour to the GumGum sales team and further develop our go-to-market sales strategy in Australia and New Zealand.”
