Google’s sales director Jason Pellegrino moves to APAC role

Pellegrino

Google Australia sales director Jason Pellegrino has been handed an expanded role as head of strategy and operations for the company in the Asia Pacific region, Mumbrella can reveal.

Pellegrino had been sales director for Australia, responsible for leading the teams in the lucrative auto, FMCG and technology categories for the search giant, as well as heading up the mobile ad strategy unit. He is succeeded by Bart Jenniches.

He also took temporary charge of the entire Australian operation when former managing director Nick Leeder departed last March, before former Procter and Gamble marketer Maile Carnegie was handed the role permanently in August.
