Omar Salah reposted thisOmar Salah reposted thisEntry-level roles may be down year on year according to recent reports, but not at Assembly Europe. We're looking for not one but two Search Account Executives to join us. It's a great opportunity to work on fantastic clients (including a newly won account), be part of the wider Stagwell network, and learn from some of the best in the business. So if you've already got some experience in Search, or you're looking to get started in the industry, check out the roles and apply online.

Omar Salah shared thisSpent Wednesday at SXSW London, an event I've been fortunate to support for the past two years by helping with their Paid Search activity. There were some thoughtful conversations throughout the day, particularly around resilience, values-led business, and navigating political and social challenges. I also enjoyed attending the SWANA & Arab meetup hosted by Qawmena and meeting people I probably wouldn't have crossed paths with otherwise. Having worked with the event up close since its inception a couple of years ago, it's been interesting to watch it grow. Looking forward to seeing where it goes next.

Omar Salah reposted thisOmar Salah reposted thisIt’s a tough market out there, but I’m still optimistic - and still actively looking for my next senior marketing role. Since finishing at National Express back in June, I’ve been working hard to find the right opportunity - whether permanent or contract - where I can bring together my experience in brand, growth and digital transformation. It’s no secret the market is really tough right now, especially at senior level. I’ve found resilience, perseverance, adaptability and lots of coffee absolutely essential – but I’m still confident in what I bring as a Head of Marketing/Senior Marketing Leader who’s shaped strategy, led teams and delivered measurable commercial impact across regulated and consumer sectors. If you hear of any senior marketing or interim leadership roles - particularly where there’s a need to revitalise brand performance, balance creativity with compliance, or drive customer growth - I’d love to connect or hear from you. Every introduction, lead or piece of advice genuinely makes a difference. Thank you. #OpenToWork #HeadOfMarketing #MarketingJobs #MarketingLeadership #BrandStrategy #GrowthMarketing #PerformanceMarketing #InterimMarketing #MarketingCommunity

Omar Salah liked thisOmar Salah liked thisAn exciting career first for me, this year I was invited to judge both the Effie UK and Campaign UK Media Week Awards. I’ve spent plenty of time on the other side of the table, writing and submitting entries (and even winning a few!) so being part of the judging process was a really rewarding experience. The standard of work was incredibly high, and I really enjoyed the discussions around what makes work both effective and innovative. I left both panels reflecting on how we isolate, measure and demonstrate the impact of our campaigns, and thinking about how I can take this back into my own work. Very grateful for the opportunity and the chance to meet some brilliant peers across the industry. Looking forward to seeing the winners revealed!

Omar Salah liked thisOmar Salah liked thisA Great founder Story. I’ve been a fan of On for quite some time now and honestly, it has become one of the brands I wear the most. So seeing this next chapter unfold is pretty special. Congrats, On and Olivier Bernhard 👏 I’ve followed the On journey for a long time, and the story behind the brand is still incredibly inspiring. From experimenting with garden hoses under running shoes to building a global sports brand and now entering a completely new chapter with On Football and Kylian Mbappé. That’s a huge step. As someone who actually wears On and follows the brand closely, I’m genuinely excited to see where this next chapter goes. Wishing Olivier and the entire On team nothing but the best. Dream On. #On #OnRunning #OnFootball #Entrepreneurship #FounderStory

Omar Salah reacted on thisOmar Salah reacted on thisAfter two and a half happy years at Assembly Europe, I’m starting a new chapter as Growth Director with the WPP Media global growth team. I’ve learned a huge amount at Assembly, and had the chance to be part of an incredible growth team. Most of all, I’m grateful for the people who made my time there what it was. I'm now looking forward to what comes next at WPP. I’m so excited to be joining such an amazing team and working across global pitches with brilliant people around the world. Feeling very lucky, and very ready for what’s next. 🤍

Omar Salah reacted on thisOmar Salah reacted on thisOn is about to break into football ⚽️ Reports suggest Kylian Mbappé has walked away from a 20-year Nike partnership, with an "unexpected" brand - widely reported to be On. Finalising a deal that goes far beyond a standard boot contract, reportedly including equity and his own sub-brand. It's not On's first move into football. In December, they soft-launched by signing FC Barcelona and Switzerland's Sydney Schertenleib as a training and lifestyle ambassador. 🇨🇭 On has grown into a $3bn+ business by disrupting stale categories through design, storytelling, and athlete equity. ⚽️ Football is a different beast - technical, tribal, generational brand loyalty. 🤝 Mbappé, if the reports hold, gives On instant credibility at the top of the sport. 📅 The timing lines up with On's Investor Day on September 22, and Real Madrid's derby against Atletico this weekend. It's rare to see a brand genuinely break into elite football market. Castore has been one of the few to do it in recent years, and even they've largely stayed on the apparel side. Skechers are also taking a shot with some big name signings like Harry Kane. On has the global recognition and the financial power. ➡️ The real question: can the product match it, when it actually has to compete on the pitch, not just in a lookbook? — Follow Callum Hosier & The Purpose Economy for more news and insights from Sport, Health & Outdoor culture.

Omar Salah liked thisOmar Salah liked thisHad a great time at Sustainability LIVE this week, gaining valuable insights into emerging trends and technologies across sustainability. The workshop organised by the Project Management Institute, "Why sustainability strategies stall between the boardroom and delivery", provided some excellent takeaways. I also particularly enjoyed the Sustainable Supply Chains panel featuring representatives from HSBC, Schneider Electric, SSP Group plc and Travelodge Hotels Limited. The discussion highlighted the importance of strong collaboration between commercial and sustainability teams to drive meaningful progress. It was encouraging to recognise many of the key themes discussed as areas already being embraced by HH Global within our global sustainability strategy. It was a pleasure to meet and speak with Madeleine Flynn, Shnelle Owusu-Mfum, Laura Tendall and Michael Rak and, of course, great to catch up with Kevin Dunckley again. Thank you to the BizClik team for organising and delivering another fantastic event. I hope to attend again next year.
