NEW YORK, Dec. 20, 2018 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- Military-grade cybersecurity company CHEQ today announced the hiring of Joshua Grant as Chief Client Officer, a new position, effective immediately.
Grant served as Head of Programmatic for Dentsu in Japan and was charged with vetting third-party verification partners for key client P&G.
In his new role, he will oversee CHEQ's rapidly growing client base and ensure the company's solutions continue to serve their custom needs and specifications. He'll be based in New York and reports directly to CEO Guy Tytunovich.
"Advertisers, agencies and publishers alike are starting to lose trust in the advertisement ecosystem due to lack of transparency and efficiency in mitigating ad fraud and ensuring brand safety," Grant said. "Through my experience in prominent digital agencies, I've realized exactly how differentiated and disruptive CHEQ's solution is, and what new-level of tech it brings to the table. Brand safety could be achieved without brands compromising on quality or publishers compromising on scale. I am very fortunate to be a member of a team that will help play a crucial role in rebuilding trust in the digital space."
