Van Rensburg will assist Kelvin Storie (group managing director at Vizeum) in the growth of Vizeum Cape Town and further strengthening the leadership team across the Vizeum South Africa portfolio.
Van Rensburg has worked with past clients that span local to global brands and encompass FMCG, healthcare, liquor, food, clothing and automotive.
Most recently, she headed up UM Cape Town as managing director, while prior experience included being acting media director at Carat, media director at The Jupiter Drawing Room as well as media director at Young & Rubicam.
She has been a Cannes Lions judge, sat on the Loeries jury and has also judged at the Bookmarks Awards. Additionally, Van Rensburg lectured at The AAA School and Red & Yellow, as well as leading internship programmes.
"I’m delighted to be part of an agency that places culture and people at the heart of the business. I find the ethos of respect, ambition and talent, combined with the quality of our Vizeum capabilities, particularly inspiring," says Van Rensburg.
"There is boundless energy within Vizeum and infectious enthusiasm amongst the team, it’s impossible not to be excited about the road ahead," she adds.
Storie says, "Anne brings a wealth of knowledge, enthusiasm and passion for both the people around her, and media as whole. I have full confidence in Anne taking the leadership and running of Vizeum Cape Town to the next level."
"Having known Anne for a good few years, I have always seen that potential Vizeum DNA running through her. As we continue to strive for 'accelerating business growth through media', this appointment further cements a strong business direction and formidable team," Storie concludes.
