July 11, 2013 7:40

The chairman of Enero John Porter has told Mumbrella that he will be staying in the role despite having become CEO of Belgian-based telco Telenet.

Porter last week stood down as the chairman of Ooh! Media Board after taking up the role with Telenet. He was replaced by Michael Anderson the former chief executive of Austereo.

But he told Mumbrella that he would be sticking with his commitment to Enero, which owns agencies including Naked Communications, BMF, The leading Edge and Frank PR

“We’ve been contemplating having a director in Europe because of our businesses in London which are having a pretty good run right now,” Porter told Mumbrella. “Because I was coming over to Europe anyway it made sense for me to be the northern hemisphere board representative.”
