MullenLowe Sri Lanka, one of Sri Lanka’s game-changing brand communication companies, has appointed top professionals from Sri Lanka and overseas to its directorate to transform and lead the company into the future.  
On board are Dr. Sohan Dharmarajah, Eshan Ponnadurai, Marc Santi and Harendra Uyanage. Santi and Ponnudurai replace outgoing Directors Virat Tandon and Vivek Kamath from MullenLowe India whilst Dr. Dharmarajah and Uyanage are new additions to the board. 

With these appointments, the new board at MullenLowe Sri Lanka will consist of Snr. Vice President and Chief Creative Officer Dilshara Jayamanne, Vice President and Finance Director Nasser Mohammed, Vice President and Director MarTech Services Dr. Sohan Dharmaraja, Director and Chief Executive Officer Thayalan Bartlett, Non-Executive Director Marc Santi, Non-Executive Director Eshan Ponnadurai and Vice President and Executive Creative Director Harendra Uyanage.    

The above appointments at MullenLowe are strategic in nature and key to drawing on global and local expertise to prime the company to meet the transitionary phase of the industry, which is rapidly evolving with technology at the core of its offerings. The company is already ahead of the game in Sri Lanka and will soon be looking at exporting some of its services to overseas markets.  

Commenting on the appointments, Bartlett said, “As a company, we have been divesting our identity as an ‘agency’ and investing in being an idea-centric and tech-driven business accelerator for clients. We will be increasingly dependent on data to make time-sensitive and mission-critical decisions for brands in the future and we want to be prepared for it. The journey has just begun, the people are in place and we look ahead with much anticipation as we begin to make these changes to our offering.”
