Shavon Barua has been appointed as the director by Euro RSCG for its Mumbai office. Barua has replaced Rajan Patel who moved on after serving 14 years at the agency.
This is Barua’s second stint with Euro RSCG, previously she worked as the head of the Reckitt Benckiser business at the Delhi office after which she joined JWT as the executive business director. Barua also worked with Bates, SSC&B Lintas, Rediffusion, Ambience and Dentsu as well.
“Shavon is an excellent client-focused communications professional and has worked on clients like Reckitt Benckiser, Colgate Palmolive, Pepsi Foods, Nestle, ITC and Lakme. I am delighted to have her back and am sure that she will make a huge positive impact on the quality of our work and also help grow the business,” said Suman Srivastava, CEO, Euro RSCG.
Shavon said, “I moved to Mumbai for personal reasons and while evaluating offers, I was really happy when offered the office head role at Euro RSCG. It is critical for me to work with the right people and Suman is someone I really respect. Also the people at Euro are some of the best in the industry and having worked with Satbir (Singh) earlier was another advantage.”
