The ExCo comprises of president digital marketing Tom Telford; president ANZ & reputation counsel Robyn Sefiani; president corporate affairs Nick Lansman; head of technology Will Julian-Vicary; general counsel Caroline Iroegbu; and president North America Kristen Ingraham.

Clarity has also made several promotions: Tom Telford to chief digital officer; Will Julian-Vicary to chief technology officer; Liam McLaughlin to senior partner UK comms; and Sydney-based Nick Owens to president corporate and crisis communications.

The agency has secured a number of client wins, including human-AI telepathy company MindPortal, online graphic design app Canva, AI21labs, which specialises in natural language processing, and Vivup, a health and wellbeing employee benefits platform that supports public and private sector workers.
