WHO ARE WE AND WHAT DO WE DO:

O&M is a world-class, multi-awarded creative agency, based in London, with two basic beliefs:

All roads lead to the work and we all work for the work.

“All roads lead to the work” because we are not a service industry, we are a manufacturing business; where our output is the very best creative product that we can make for our clients.

“We all work for the work” because creative is not a department, it is what we all do for a living.

At O&M we all work together to create the conditions within which great creative work can happen.

No excuses, no exceptions, no shirking, no blame. We’re in this together. We strive to make socially relevant work for our clients. This is creative work that generates or joins a conversation bigger than the advertising. Ideas that live beyond paid media. Ideas with ambition.

We work for all kinds and all sizes of clients (with all kinds of needs and budgets). We represent O&M in London for large global clients like BP, Philips, AMEX and Unilever. We are O&M London for local clients running domestic campaigns from Kronenbourg to Amnesty International.

If that sounds like somewhere for you then we’d love to see you.

OUR SUCCESSES:

  • Ogilvy & Mather Advertising was recognised at The Campaign BIG awards 2014 with a Silver for Dove ‘Beach Radio’,
  • In 2013 Ogilvy & Mather London was the most awarded UK agency at the Cannes Lions Advertising Festival and Ogilvy & Mather was named Campaign Magazine Network of the Year.

WE WANT PEOPLE WHO:

We believe Ogilvy is a place like no other, ‘gentleman with brains’ – is how our founder, David Ogilvy, described us many years ago. Now, the message is gentle people with brains – generous and open, connected, collaborative and ambitious for our clients and each other. One integrated family, who celebrate individuality and embrace diversity. Removal Date 20-Sep-2017
