Two years ago, Havas Media Group began the year by asserting that "transformation" is a "constant state of being," and naming Greg James to the new position of Global Chief Transformation Officer.

Two years later, it is doubling down on that assertion by transforming its leadership team once again, this time tapping Greg Walsh for the newly created position of Global Chief Business Transformation Officer of Havas Media Network, and moving James to Walsh's former role as CEO of Havas Media North America.

As part of that transformation, Havas also announced that Global COO Jorge Irizar "will be more keenly focused on supercharging global growth for HMN’s specialty offerings – CSA (data & tech), Havas Market (eCommerce) and Havas Play (activation) – across 70+ markets.

"He will also continue to lead Converged, the network’s world-class tech stack, which guides audience insights and activation at a global scale."
