JOY has appointed John Clements as chief finance officer.
He joins after 14 years at IPG, most recently as group CFO across Australia.
Clements succeeds Robyn Hayward, who is leaving to expand her remit with Singapore based in-housing agency MASH Brands.
“John comes with a wealth of experience as a holdco CFO. He has also led the finance committee of the MFA for the last five years,” said JOY CEO and Mediaweek 100 2025 Icon Peter Horgan.
“John’s appointment signals our ambition to continue building blue-chip capability underpinned by strong governance principles.
“I’d personally also like to thank Robyn Hayward, who has been a great asset to the business and a friend to us all.”
Clements said he’s excited to be joining JOY at such a pivotal time.
“What drew me to the business is its clear sense of purpose, strong culture and ambition for sustainable growth,” he said.
“I’m looking forward to partnering with Horgs and the leadership team to help build on an already strong platform that supports long-term growth for its clients.”
Clements’ appointment is effective 1 March.
