Justin Kingston.
Digital place-based media company Motio has appointed Justin Kingston chief operating officer, based at the company's headquarters in North Sydney.
He joined the business earlier this month following an extensive national search.
Kingston spent the past eight years with oOh! media, most recently as group director for retail, driving major commercial programs and operational performance. He led Reo during his tenure.
Before that, Kingston was chief operating officer at Executive Channel, helping shape one of Australia's original office and place-based media networks before its acquisition by oOh! in 2017.
"Justin is a genuine force in place-based media," said CEO Adam Cadwallader.
"We've worked together, and we've competed against each other and I couldn't be more thrilled to now be on the same team again. His capability, discipline and commercial firepower come at exactly the right moment as Motio moves into its next phase of growth and investment."
Kingston said Motio has momentum, ambition and a strong team.
"Adam and I bring complementary strengths, a shared vision and a real passion for this sector. I'm energised to help accelerate what's already an exciting trajectory."
