INTERBRAND GROUP Promotes Gonzalo Brujó to Global President role
NEW YORK, January 28th, 2021 – Interbrand Group, today announced the promotion of Gonzalo
Brujó to Global President, effective February 1st, 2021. Currently the Global Chief Growth Officer of Omnicom Group’s (NYSE: OMC) Interbrand Group, Brujó steps into this newly created role with expansive leadership experience and will be responsible for the day-to-day operations of Interbrand Group around the world. Charles Trevail will continue in his role as Global Chief Executive Officer of Interbrand Group.
Brujó has been Global Chief Growth Officer of the Interbrand Group for three years. Prior to that, he spent more than fifteen years scaling the Interbrand business in Europe, Latin America and the Middle East. He is a trusted partner of a diverse array of leading companies, multinationals, NGOs and public institutions.
Having partnered with a variety of leading global businesses to solve strategic brand, marketing and communication challenges, Brujó is passionate about helping companies in all sectors drive growth.

Charles Trevail added, “Gonzalo has demonstrated that he is an exceptional collaborator and proven leader, over the past 18 years at Interbrand. He is a trusted partner to our clients around the world – and has played a critical role in evolving our business, most notably through his successful global leadership driving growth, during the pandemic.”
