Dentsu has revealed that its UK and Ireland chief executive of media Jenny Bullis is set to leave the business in July, taking up an as of yet undisclosed role at Google.

First reported by Campaign following an internal memo sent yesterday (24 March) afternoon, the agency has told staff that it will be looking for a direct replacement for Bullis.

In the interim, Dentsu X’s global brand president Shenda Loughnane will take over the role until a successor is found. Bullis’ move comes hot on the heels of Dentu UK CEO Angela Tangas’ departure in December last year.

Speaking to Campaign, CEO Annette Male said: “Jenny has brought progressive thinking to Dentsu, readying our capability to be a modern media business.

“I’ve truly appreciated her vision and drive to make it possible and wish her all the best in the future.”

Bullis joined from her role as EMEA VP of marketing science at Meta nine months ago, assuming oversight of Dentsu’s media portfolio which includes Carat, Dentsu X, iProspect, Amplifi, Dentsu Digital and media analytics division DDL.
