Aimee Buchanan, CEO of OMD Australia, said, “We are excited to have Sharon back at OMD. With the significant growth the Melbourne team has experienced, Sharon will bring an additional level of support for the team. She has extensive knowledge of the local market and I look forward to her contributing to the ongoing success of our Melbourne office.”
