Hunt was working with Adconion's Australian operations, where he was head of video, as well as managing director of RedLever, the premium digital branded entertainment studio.

As managing director of Adconion's UK office, he will be responsible for driving growth of the business' display advertising.

Hunt joined Adconion in November 2007 to lead the post-merger integration of Tempest Media, Australia's largest site representation firm, whose portfolio included Facebook, YouTube and AOL, and email marketing company Zoom Direct.

During his time in Australia, Hunt played an instrumental role in helping Adconion become a leading audience network, as well as developing Adconion's market position as a leading provider of online video solutions. 

He previously worked at ZDNet as the company's Australian sales and marketing director, and was responsible for online sales, marketing and business development. He later moved to its UK office to launch CNET Direct UK.

In his final role as CNET's commercial director and executive team member, Hunt's responsibilities included managing significant internal change, as well as driving the aggressive growth of CNET's display media business with UK agencies.
