Media Experts has promoted two of its senior leaders to vice president posts and has welcomed back a former long-time staffer as a third.

Emily Furtado has been promoted to VP and client business partner. During her more than 10 years with the agency, Furtado moved steadily up the ranks, most recently serving as managing director of performance media. Furtado has helped the agency’s Montreal clients keep up to speed on the latest digital practices and will continue to leverage her expertise in performance and digital to help elevate and evolve Media Experts’ presence in the Quebec market.

Lindsay Garfinkle has been promoted from managing director of strategy to VP of strategy, leading key client accounts while continuing to develop strategic insights and deliver results-oriented solutions. Garfinkle has been with Media Experts for 10 years, moving up the ranks of its strategy team.

Adrian Gaudet has returned to Media Experts to take the post of VP and client business partner, tasked with fostering relationships with clients and helping them achieve their business goals. Gaudet previously spent 10 years at Media Experts before leaving in 2021 to become head of media strategy at Media.Monks.

Karel Wegert, who was named CEO of Media Experts earlier this month, says the new appointments represent the agency’s “agile and adaptable approach.”

“Their extensive expertise and leadership skills make them valuable assets in advancing and transforming our practice for the future,” he says. “We are thrilled to have them take on expanded roles and are confident they will continue to drive excellence for our clients.”
