YouGov Promotions Fill CEO Roles

YouGov has promoted Laura Robbie, previously MD Australia, to the role of CEO of the Asia Pacific region, replacing Julien Chevignon who becomes CEO for Western Europe.

Chevignon joined the group in 2011 to lead the French operation, was CEO for Southern Europe and then moved Down Under three years ago.

Robbie (pictured) joined in October 2019 as GM for Australia and was given the MD role a year ago. She moved to Australia in 2008, midway through an eight-year stint at Research Now, before spending five and a half years at Kantar division Lightspeed (earlier Lightspeed GMI), latterly as General Manager. Since moving to Sydney, she has also worked extensively in Asian countries including India, China and Japan.
