Tan adds Singapore GroupM role

SINGAPORE - The expansion of GroupM Malaysia CEO Henry Tan's responsibilities to include Singapore has been confirmed, after Media first reported yesterday that MindShare Singapore CEO Manpreet Singh is departing the agency, with Starcom veteran Jeffrey Seah coming onboard as the agency's new MD.

Based in Kuala Lumpur, Tan (pictured) becomes CEO of GroupM Malaysia & Singapore; the island state was previously the only key Asian market without GroupM leadership.

With Tan at the helm, GroupM Malaysia has seen significant growth in recent years.
