John Ziegler

Chief Marketing Officer and Futurist

A staunch advocate of the role of marketing in business success, John Zeigler launched the world’s first integrated agency in 1986, making him an expert in the field at a time when everyone was taking the single-minded approach to communications. Having lived across three continents and worked on some of the world’s biggest and smallest brands, John is a great believer in reinvention and what that means for brands in this increasingly technology driven world. 

Before joining nimbus in 2019, John was Chairman and CEO of DDB Group Asia Pacific, India, Japan. His responsibilities spanned 33 agencies in 14 countries and more than 3,200 employees. Under his leadership in his prior role, DDB Group Asia Pacific was recognised consistently by their industry peers and received countless accolades. John himself was honoured to be awarded in 2013 for Global Marketer of the Year by the Academy of Marketing Science along with the Brand Leadership Award at the CMO Asia Awards. 

John has been integral in the rebrand of nimbus, developing the inter-connection between the three solutions for complete workforce optimisation, and has led the marketing vision to create products for the new technology world.
