"We’re delighted to have Gareth on board. We’re already seeing the positive impact and attitude he has been displaying in the few short days that he’s been with the team," says Kgaugelo. "He has experienced both the agency and client side of media and brings with him a fresh perspective on managing a financial account."
Grant joined the advertising industry in 2005. He was invited to guest lecturer at the AAA during 2006 and 2008, providing insights into his first impressions of the workplace. Starting at UM as a media planner, Grant landed an opportunity as senior media strategist at FNB – a position he held for four years before joining The MediaShop team.
Grant has also been actively involved in the AMASA committee in previous years and has achieved two Roger Garlick Awards. Grant is known for pioneering media ideas and how to implement them.
"I’m very grateful to have had the working experiences I’ve had leading up to this point because I’ve been able to get a good sense of managing a client both from a business sense and from a media point of view," Grant adds. "The financial world is an extremely competitive category. I’m looking forward to getting stuck in to see where our team can elevate Nedbank’s business even further."
