Gavros, who previously held the Sydney trading director role at Starcom for over 17 years, is joining Publicis Media Exchange in the newly created role as commercial director.

“After working with Starcom for 17 years this is an exciting new challenge for me and an opportunity to bring my experience in investment to the group.
