He relocates to Malaysia this month after holding the position of regional business director at O&M Singapore where he ran the company’s Coca-Cola and Diageo Asia-Pacific accounts. In his new role, he will continue to manage these accounts in addition to overseeing all aspects of the Maxis Berhad account, Malaysia’s leading integrated communications provider.

“Aeberhard is one of the new breed of holistic communications professionals coming to Asia. He is discipline agnostic and understands exactly how creativity in all its forms drives sales results,” remarked Mayo on the appointment.

Ogilvy & Mather Malaysia’s chief executive officer Andre Nair said that Aeberhard brings a fresh, dynamic approach to the Malaysian office and his appointment demonstrates the firm’s commitment to delivering the highest levels of client service in Malaysia.
