Amardeep Singh named COO of Omnicom Media India

In a major leadership announcement, Amardeep Singh has been appointed the Chief Operating Officer (COO) of Omnicom Media India.

Singh was earlier the CEO of IPG Mediabrands. He was elevated to the post in May this year.

Among other major Kartik Sharma has been appointed as the Chief Executive Officer (CEO) for Omnicom Media India, and Shashi Sinha has been named as the Strategic Advisor.

 The move comes amid Omnicom’s post-merger restructuring and reorganisation strategy following the acquisition of Interpublic Group (IPG). The new leadership is expected to steer the combined entity’s India business, oversee agency integrations, and chart growth strategy for the expanded network in the world’s fastestgrowing major ad market.

 Industry insiders say the elevation reflects Omnicom’s emphasis on stability in a turbulent transition, giving senior management direct oversight over operations, client service and talent realignment.

The appointments are likely to be formally announced on the company’s India portal in the coming days; Omnicom declined comment for now.
