Moult describes the offer at Ogilvy is an opportunity that he simply could not turn down. “There is no doubt that Ogilvy is one of the strongest agency groups in the country. It has the unbeatable combination of being one of the world’s strongest brands, with the advantage of local control,” he said.

Moult will work closely with CEO Stuart O’Brien.

Ogilvy & Mather in Australia is in a joint venture partnership with STW Group.
