The Brand Consulting Group will combine the global expertise of the following agencies: Hall & Partners, Interbrand, C Space, OurCreative, Siegel + Gale, Sterling Brands and Wolff Olins.
“We have simplified our organisation structure and service offerings to ensure that our client teams consist of the best talent no matter what agency they sit in or where they are located.

Brymer added, “By leveraging the tools and resources of this group of agencies, we can help brands forge deeper, more meaningful connections at speed and scale. I look forward to charting a successful path forward for the benefit of our clients and employees.”
Agencies within the Practice Area will continue to retain their strong brands and cultures whilst continuing to operate as independent businesses. Coordination across management teams and top client leaders will also optimise the performance of Omnicom’s agencies and help drive growth for its clients.
