Indonesia – GroupM Indonesia has appointed seasoned marketing leader Sri Widowati as its new chief executive officer, tasking her with spearheading growth and strengthening client-focused innovation.

Widowati joins GroupM Indonesia from Danone, where she spent four years as vice president of marketing. Her career spans leadership roles at global companies including Unilever, Meta, and L’Oréal, giving her a broad perspective on both local and international markets.

Known for her strategic thinking and collaborative leadership style, Widowati is widely respected for her ability to build strong teams and long-term partnerships.

In her new role, she will focus on driving innovation and delivering measurable impact in Indonesia’s fast-evolving media and marketing landscape. Drawing from her experience on the client side, she brings a deep understanding of consumer behaviour and commercial strategy.

This major appointment follows recent media reports that WPP is planning to rebrand GroupM as ‘WPP Media’ and consolidate its agency brands — EssenceMediacom, Wavemaker, and Mindshare — under a unified operating model.
