Snap has appointed Ryan Ferguson as managing director for Australia and New Zealand. Ferguson joined Snap in July as head of sales after more than 16 years at Google, where he held various senior leadership roles. Ferguson will replace Tony Keusgen and the appointment is effective immediately.

Rideshare service Didi has appointed Strat (Stratosphere) for media planning and buying in Australia. Didi has expanded its presence in the Australian market since its launch in 2018. The appointment comes following a competitive pitch and is effective immediately, with Strat already collaborating closely with Didi's marketing team to launch their inaugural campaign together. 
 
Agent99, an indie PR agency based in Sydney, has announced a new hire and some internal promotions. Zarah Jaggers has joined as its newest PR and social coordinator. Meanwhile, the agency has also promoted two of its team members. The first is Brooke Mason, who joined the team in 2023 as an account coordinator and has quickly risen the ranks, being recently promoted to senior account executive. In addition, Meriha Beaton has been promoted to senior account manager. Beaton brings ten years of experience in PR, media, and journalism to the team, and has been integral to the re-signing of several long-term retainer clients.
