Weber Shandwick has appointed Marta Bigio senior vice president, Sustainability Lead, APAC.
Based in Singapore, Bigio will report to Carolyn Devanayagam, Head of Corporate Affairs, Weber Shandwick, Asia Pacific and will support the firm’s clients in navigating an increasingly important business imperative today around building purpose-led and sustainable practices within their business.
Bigio previously led the sustainability practice of a communications firm in the region working with clients to define, build, and implement sustainability strategies whilst developing the agency’s own sustainability efforts.

She is also currently the co-chair Sustainability Committee at PRCA where she develops tools and assets to equip sustainability professionals to speak authentically about sustainability.
“As our clients stand at the precipice of transformation in their sustainability endeavors, we recognize the critical need for the right consulting partner to guide them on their purpose-driven journey,” said Carolyn Devanayagam.
