He will be responsible for talent development across the group's agencies: OMD, PHD and Foundation in Australia.
Commenting on the appointment, Leigh Terry, CEO Omnicom Media Group Australia & New Zealand said “Cowie’s background as an agency lead and leadership and development specialist means he’s in a unique position to understand the role training and staff connectivity plays in a people focused business."
