The ADMA appoints Determined Consumer’s Christopher Zinn as ADMA Code Authority chair
The Association of Data-driven Marketing & Advertising (ADMA) and its Code compliance mechanism, the Code Authority has recently named Christopher Zinn (left) as chair of the independent marketing complaints review body.
The appointment of Zinn by ADMA is the latest in the organisation’s strong delivery against its strategic plan, which includes creating accountability and high standards for its members across the entire marketing industry.
Says Jodie Sangster, CEO, ADMA: “Data is becoming increasingly used by organisations and we want to ensure good practices and high standards. Members of ADMA meet these standards and the Code Authority ensures consumer trust.”
As marketing’s self-regulatory body, ADMA has empowered the Code Authority to oversee compliance with the ADMA Code of Practice (The Code).
Zinn, director of Determined Consumer and formerly campaigns and communications director at Choice, is known for his ability to balance strong business and pro-consumer positions and is expected to bring this to his chairing of the ADMA Code Authority.
Says Zinn: “I am very happy to have been asked by marketing’s peak body to work closely with industry and continue my advocacy for consumers.”
Says Sangster: “Christopher is a great choice of chairman understanding both perspectives. He also has a strong team of experts who will help him with this issue.”
Current members of the Code Authority include consumer advocates Victoria Rubensohn, Robin Brown and former Commonwealth Ombudsman Allan Asher. Industry representatives include Samantha Yorke (Google), Sophie Jackson (Foxtel) and Graeme Alexander (American Express).

I am trying to contact Chris Zinn to see if I can use the Interview wording on Tom Baxter and Neds scull on Rewind many years ago. My book is on Williamstown and the Kelly story ties in with an anecdote on Isacc Crawcour who was shot by Ernest Knox at his fathers Pawnbrokers shop in Williamstown. The tie in with Ned comes with the initials EK and Knox and Kelly sculls. My book only has interest in Williamstown as it is about local events. And Ned was also held in one of the steel hulks anchored off Williamstown for a couple of years. I can email the pages to Chris if he wished to see them. Regards Gordon Bird
