Experienced media and marketing leader, Nick Randall has been appointed as Director of Customer Success and Operations where he is tasked with leading all customer engagement, growth and development initiatives for agencies and brands. He will also join the APAC leadership team where he will lead broader operational initiatives as Impact continues to scale across the region.

“Nick joins Impact with a blue-chip media and marketing resume and is the ideal person to assume leadership of our customer success and operations team and ensure we continue to offer a delightful customer experience,” said Adam Furness, Managing Director APAC. “He has extensive experience working within rapidly scaling organisations and will be an integral member of our leadership team.”
