Los Angeles-based Phenomenon has appointed Sandy Song to serve in the newly created role of Chief Client Officer.

Song originally started at the shop in January as a consultant, coincidently timed with the agency’s search for someone to fill the new role.

“As we worked together, it became apparent that our philosophies aligned, and that she would be a valuable asset during and after COVID-19,” says Krish Menon, Founder and CEO, Phenomenon.

Song previously served as managing director at Omnicom’s agency 180LA and earlier spent time at Deutsch, Team One and RPA.

Menon founded Phenomenon in 2006 after a stint at Omnicom’s DDB as Chief Strategy Officer. Last year he sold a majority stake to California private equity firms Berggruen Holdings and Sleeping Bear Capital.

The agency works with clients like Warner Bros., American Express and Procter & Gamble.
