Havas Media Network Names Carey Loh Singapore CEO

Ad Tribe! Bureau2 min read
Carey Loh, the new chief executive officer of Havas Media Network Singapore

Havas Media Network has appointed Carey Loh chief executive officer for Singapore. Loh joins after more than 16 years at WPP Media and will lead the next phase of growth for the Singapore business, with a focus on media capabilities, client partnerships, innovation and building teams.

  • Company: Havas Media Network
  • New role: Chief executive officer, Singapore
  • Previously: WPP Media, more than 16 years
  • Reports to: Rana Barua

Carey Loh Succeeds Pankaj Nayak

Loh takes over from Pankaj Nayak, who has moved on from the agency to pursue other opportunities. Loh reports to Rana Barua, group CEO of Havas India, Southeast Asia and North Asia.

Why Singapore Matters To Havas

Barua called Singapore "a critical growth market for Havas Media Network in Asia" and said it plays an important part in the group's Growth, Powered by Desire strategy. He said the network is expanding new core capabilities, including Havas Play, CSA and Havas Market, and that Loh's appointment is part of investing in talent and capabilities for growth in the market. Singapore also serves as a regional hub for Havas across Southeast and North Asia, and the role sits alongside the rollout of Converged.AI, the network's AI-powered operating system.

What Carey Loh Said

"Singapore is an incredibly dynamic market, where businesses are rethinking how they connect with consumers," Loh said, adding that the priority is to work with the teams and partners across the Havas Village to strengthen capabilities and deepen client partnerships.

The Context

Moves from WPP's media business to rival holding companies have been frequent this year as agencies rebuild their media offers around data, commerce and AI. For Havas, which runs its India, Southeast Asia and North Asia operations under one group CEO, the Singapore hire sits alongside recent senior additions in India, such as Rajat Vij joining Havas Media Network India to drive new business.

More about the network is on Havas Media Network's website.
