Edelman CEO Tom Robinson announces departure

After nearly four years as Chief Executive Officer at public relations agency, Edelman in Australia, Tom Robinson has announced his decision to leave the business. 

He was previously at MediaCom Australia for nearly 11 years, where he held multiple roles, including as Managing Partner, Creative Systems and as Head of Content Strategy and Distribution.

"It’s been a privilege to lead Edelman Australia for the last four years as we established a new positioning and proposition in Australia that will shape the growth of the business in the years to come," Tom said.

"I'm proud of all that our team and leadership have achieved together. However, the time feels right for a new leader to shape the next phase of the business, and I look forward to taking on a new challenge."

Tom's last day at the agency will be on May 15.
