London, 30th May 2025: Deliveroo has appointed Lucia Mastromauro as Vice President of Advertising to lead the next phase of its global retail media strategy and accelerate the growth of Deliveroo Media.

Mastromauro joins Deliveroo from WPP’s data and technology consultancy, Choreograph (formerly Acceleration), where she was Managing Director. Her extensive career spans senior commercial roles at Adform, King, Google, and eBay, bringing two decades of experience across adtech, data, programmatic, and digital brand strategy.

At Deliveroo, she will oversee the advertising business, including strategy, product innovation, commercial growth and operations across all markets. Lucia’s arrival comes at an exciting time for Deliveroo Media, which has seen strong growth since its launch in 2022. Advertising revenue reached 1.4% of GTV in Q4 2024, as the business works towards a target of advertising revenue of 2%+ of Group GTV by 2026.

With over 7 million monthly active users, and approximately 300 million orders a year across approximately 176,000 restaurant, grocery and retail partners, Deliveroo has established itself as a high-impact media platform for both endemic and non-endemic brands.

In 2024, Deliveroo invested in new targeting tools and ad formats powered by machine learning, which drove a 15% increase in advertiser participation and a 90% monthly retention rate. The platform has already delivered high-performance campaigns for major brands including Coca-Cola, Pepsi, Heineken, ITV and Sky, connecting them with high-intent audiences in real time.

Deliveroo’s retail media offering continues to evolve alongside its core business, expanding from restaurant delivery into grocery and retail. This opens up new inventory, new audiences, and new relevance for brands across categories including food and beverage, entertainment, finance, travel and more.

Lucia Mastromauro, VP of Advertising at Deliveroo, said: "I am thrilled to be joining Deliveroo at such a pivotal moment in its exciting growth journey. With an ambitious team and a strong foundation in place, we have a real opportunity to accelerate the development and expansion of our media offering. As the digital advertising landscape evolves, brands are looking for more relevant and meaningful ways to connect with consumers, and Deliveroo is uniquely positioned to deliver on that. I am excited to help shape what comes next and build on our mission to help brands ‘Deliver Meaningful Moments Now’.”
