MORE ABOUT HAVAS MEDIA GROUP
Havas Media Network is part of the sixth largest advertising network in the world, Havas Group. We are headquartered out of St Pancras, London, and along with offices in Leeds, Manchester and Edinburgh, we operate globally. Our CEO is Patrick (‘Paddy’) Affleck.
Our overarching mission is to make a meaningful difference to the brands, businesses, and lives of the people we work with. Our solution is simple: we identify and create meaningful media experiences to deliver meaningful growth for our clients. In the last two years, we’ve undergone a transformation that’s seen us bind together nine agencies into three core agency brands and propositions:
Havas Media - through which we deliver meaningful outcomes through meaningful media
Havas Market - through which we help clients build meaningful retail experiences
Havas Entertainment - through which we help clients create meaningful moments in culture
In 2022, we’ve strengthened group-wide capabilities and expertise to match clients’ needs to unlock emerging growth opportunities in the ‘new economy’. Our acquisitions of leading agencies Search Laboratory, additive+ and Expert Edge are helping turbocharge our capabilities in search, DCO and ecommerce – with more to come. We also launched a dedicated B2B division, Havas Business, to help clients seize on the huge opportunity of B2B marketing for clients.
Altogether we work with clients such as Domino’s, JDE, Hyundai, Kia, British Red Cross, BBC, Dreams, Matalan, Remy Cointreau, Studio Canal, Universal Media Group, UKTV, Maersk, De Beers and more. We have recently won Beer and Pub Association IPA Effectiveness Silver, BBC Outdoor Media awards Brand Building (Gold), Domino’s Outdoor Media awards Cross Format (Gold), Maersk Grand Prix for Effectiveness with WARC and Kia, Best Use of Search in the UK Search awards, and the Thinkbox Advanced TV Planning award to name just a few.
But we’re more than just great work. Havas Media Network is a place where you can make things happen by pursuing your professional and personal dreams. As such, we’ve also launched the ‘Meaningfully Daring Side Hustle’ programme, while Havas Boost announced its first investment into STEM educational toys business, Ambessa Play. We are also soon to be B Corp certified. This is why we’re on Campaign’s ‘Best Place to Work’ list each year and our Talent team has been awarded the IPA Gold CPD Accreditation.
