Media Planning at Omnicom: Insights, Ideas, and Inspiration

Another week, another exciting trip for our students. Last week, our Year 12 Creative Enterprise students were welcomed into the Omnicom Media Group offices and had a day full of inspiration. They got the chance to hear from three amazing guest speakers, Ammaarah Sheikh and Megha Uppal from OMD EMEA and Global Academy alumni, Rosie Jones. A massive thank you to Carrie-Anne Woodard, Mollie-Anna Havenhand and Alayna El-Husseini for hosting! Have a read of one of our students take on the day.

 

“Ever wondered what it’s like to be in the shoes of a media planner? Well, buckle up because we’ve got the inside scoop for you!

We recently caught up with Ammaarah Sheikh and Megha Uppal from OMD EMEA, and they spilt the beans! From brainstorming sessions to dishing out some seriously valuable career advice, these two are the real experts.

The highlight of our chat? Definitely the brainstorming session we had. We took a brief, threw some ideas around, and voila! The creative juices were flowing like never before, it was epic!

And then, there was more! Shoutout to Rosie Jones, a former student turned pro at Fuse, who dropped some serious knowledge bombs on us. Her journey from the Academy to the working world is nothing short of inspiring.

Today was a whirlwind of insights and inspiration, and we couldn’t be more grateful. Big thanks to Ammaarah, Megha, and Rosie for taking the time to chat with us. And of course, props to the Academy for making it all happen!”
