New Edelman boss wants to make agency one of Australia’s best places to work
Incoming Edelman Australia CEO Steven Spurr is aiming to make the agency one of the best places to work in Australia citing culture and talent as a key focus in his “three-point” plan for Edelman’s future.
Spurr will be stepping into the local CEO position from next March, replacing Tim Riches who resigned at the beginning of November.
Speaking to Mumbrella on a recent trip to Australia to meet agency staff and clients Spurr, currently the COO of Edelman UK and Ireland, outlined his vision for the agency in a three-point plan, saying he wants it to be a “top talent destination”.

Still the best agency I’ve ever worked at. Welcome Steven!
