Mobile billings have grown 113 per cent at MediaCom during 2013. Phillips will work to define best practice across the agency and ensure mobile is being used for driving footfall, direct response, brand engagement and mCommerce opportunities.
Phillips joins MediaCom from Adloqi, a DSP tech provider. MediaCom’s EMEA head of mobile, Steffen Krabbenhøft, and Andrew Newton, who heads-up MediaCom’s P&G mobile team in APAC, will both report to Phillips.
