Ben Gibb
Outdoor media company QMS has appointed Ben Gibb national sales director for New Zealand.
He joins from sports entertainment network, Sky New Zealand, where he was head of ad sales.
“Ben is a significant hire for us – in every way,” said Tim Murphy, chief sales officer at QMS.
“He’s one of the most respected operators in the New Zealand market and his experience, reputation and leadership will play a key role in building the QMS brand across our leading portfolio of assets including Auckland Transport’s four prized out of home concessions: vehicular based [transit] media, transport hubs, billboards and the newly appointed street furniture network.
“His deep understanding of both the OOH and media landscapes will be invaluable as we transform our offering, providing greater opportunities for our media agency partners and their clients to plan and buy across New Zealand’s #1 OOH network.”
Gibb joins the team at a time of growth for the company with the transition of MediaWorks’ out-of-home division to QMS.
“I’m thrilled to be joining QMS at such an exciting time for the business,” said Gibb.
“The transition of MediaWorks’ OOH division to QMS represents a huge opportunity to reimagine the OOH market, servicing our customers with innovative and effective solutions across New Zealand’s largest and most diverse OOH network.”
