Our What’s NEXT in Marketing 2026 Conference Series returns to the Philippines, Singapore, Hong Kong, Indonesia, Malaysia—and for the first time in Thailand! Brace yourself for bold ideas driving the next marketing wave. Click here to learn more!

Australia – Manisha Seewal, the chief marketing officer of Gumtree Australia, CarsGuide, and Autotrader Group Australia, has decided to leave her positions in all three companies, as she moves back home to Singapore.

In a LinkedIn post, Seewal reflected on her time spearheading the marketing function for 3 brands with a special focus on sustainability and automotive. 

Seewal shared that she has learnt a lot alongside some of the smartest colleagues in business and will take to heart the leadership values of being passionate and courageous while being empathetic and adaptable for her next adventure. 

“Now with the sale of the business being concluded, Gumtree is in very good hands of The Market Herald leadership team. I am confident that they will bring the business to greater heights,” she said.

In MARKETECH APAC’s recent Empowered Women Series last March 2022, we featured Seewal and her marketing journey and experience in overcoming preconceptions about all women working in the automotive industry.
