Campaign’s annual Faces to Watch lists, showcases the brightest and best agency talent aged 30 and under, have been some of the year’s highlights for a while at Campaign. But we have long been asked why we don’t also celebrate young leaders-in-making on the client side, who often work hand-in-hand with the agency people we’ve listed. So we’ve gone and done it, and this list is just as encouraging to read.
Cynics have said that they use our Faces to Watch as a catalogue for potential hires, but we suspect they will be hard-pushed to pull these marketers from their current employers. The young marketers all seem to have found jobs where they are thriving and content, proof that top employers get top talent, and that top talent chooses to stick around to do great work.
Do you want to see the future? Sign up for Campaign’s Marcomms360 Predictions 2021 virtual event on December 14-15. Registration is free.
All the faces you’ll see on the coming pages have been nominated by their colleagues, their bosses or their agencies. In other words, they have earned the respect and admiration of those they work with. We had to cut a lot of very impressive references, achievements and endorsements in the interests of space, but you can see how highly industry colleagues rate the Faces to Watch. It is interesting to compare them with the Game Changers , who have reached the top of their profession, while the Faces are on their way up. But they share many of the same traits: dedication, enthusiasm, a sense of teamwork and, importantly, being nice people to work with. We are sure many of today’s Faces to Watch will be tomorrow’s Game Changers. Watch and see.
