[London – 13 May 2026]: i-media, the UK’s leading motorway DOOH network, today announces the appointment of Nick Slaymaker to the newly created role of Chief Growth Officer.

Nick joins i-media following a 19-year tenure at WPP, where he held several high-profile leadership positions, including Investment Leader at GroupM, Chief Investment Officer at MediaCom Global and Global Head of Trading at MediaCom.

I am eager to apply my experience in global investment and trading to help our brand partners achieve measurable, high-impact growth on the UK road network.”
