MD Of Brand New Media Departs
Global video content creation company brand new media (BNM) today announces Simon Joyce, Managing Director, Australia and New Zealand has resigned and is leaving the company to pursue a new opportunity.
“BNM is an extraordinary business with a really talented team and is well positioned to be the dominant force in video content marketing. It’s been an honour to work with Perry and lead the Australian team and I have no doubt that the business will continue on its growth path both in Australia and internationally. Personally, I would have loved to be part of this future growth, however the opportunity to start something new was too good to refuse” said Simon Joyce.
