Starcom promotes Peacocke to Chief Client Officer

Starcom, a Publicis Groupe-owned communications planning and media agency, has promoted Louise Peacocke to the newly-created role of Chief Client Officer. She will retain her current responsibilities leading the media team at PG one – the dedicated P&G account team within Publicis – while taking on the responsibility of managing Starcom’s overall client relationships.

Continuing to report into both Nadine Young, Starcom UK CEO, and Jayne Roseman, Global Managing Director for PG One (Media), Peacocke will be responsible for leading initiatives to further embed client relationships, and overseeing the multi-discipline teams that deliver client service.

“Louise has been a phenomenal leader overseeing one of our biggest accounts and I couldn’t be more excited to welcome her into this new role,” said Young. “I am certain we will all benefit from the breadth of her expertise and dedication to delivering an outstanding client experience. She is passionate about building high-performing teams underpinned by an inclusive culture. I personally am looking forward to working with Louise as we look to grow Starcom even further.”

Peacocke has been at Starcom for five years, joining Publicis Media from Mediacom. Most recently, she was UK Managing Director for PG One, a role she had held since September 2020. In her more than 20 years’ experience, she has worked with clients including Direct Line Group, Sky, PUIG, Kraft Heinz and Lionsgate.
