Whitfield: Finishes up at GroupM today

He began his latest role in November last year.

What is it they say about the inverse relationship between the length of the statement and the level of acrimony…?

crikey! What a bunch of shitty messages for a very pleasant self-effacing marketer that went out of his way to help others.
Good luck with the next chapter Tim. Sorry you are surrounded by such a bunch of anonymous wankers.

Good luck on your next move Tim. Big loss for GroupM.

Your experience as a male industry leader would have been polar opposite to a junior ad tech employee.

Well said Professor!
Whilst I choose to remain anonymous it’s not because I want to bash Tim. In contrast I wish Tim the very best. He is a terrific fellow and wherever he lands next will be getting an immense talent.

I’ve had the pleasure of working under Tim for a number of years at Facilitate Digital in Sydney. What a fine gentleman and brilliant technology guru! I learned so much from Tim. I was happy for him at GroupM and I know wherever he lands, he’ll once again prove himself to be the best Operations and Technology Leader in the business! Go Tim…I certainly wish you the super success!
