VaynerMedia has appointed Marcus Krzastek as its first-ever President, International, marking a significant step in the agency’s global growth. In this new role, Krzastek will oversee VaynerMedia’s operations across the Asia-Pacific (APAC), Europe, the Middle East, and Africa (EMEA), guiding a team of nearly 600 people. This appointment comes as VaynerMedia’s international presence has grown from its initial offices in Singapore and London to include fully established teams in countries such as Australia, India, Japan, Malaysia, Thailand, and Amsterdam.
Krzastek has been a vital part of VaynerMedia since he joined the agency in 2009. He has played a key role in VaynerMedia’s journey from a small startup to the global powerhouse it is today. Before stepping into this new role, he was the President of The Sasha Group, a VaynerX company, where he significantly increased revenue and profitability. Krzastek also has a history of working closely with Gary Vaynerchuk, VaynerMedia’s CEO, and served as his Chief of Staff, helping launch and scale various VaynerX ventures.
Gary Vaynerchuk praised Krzastek for his deep understanding of VaynerMedia’s business and leadership. “Marcus has been integral to VaynerMedia’s success since day one. His exceptional leadership makes him the perfect choice to drive our international growth,” said Vaynerchuk.
Krzastek is excited about this new chapter, saying, “I’ve seen VaynerMedia grow into a global leader in creating social-first content for major brands. I’m honored to take on this new role and build upon the incredible momentum we’ve gained in our international markets.”
