Ellie Howard

Client Account Director, MG OMD

In my five years working in media, I spearheaded the most-awarded campaign at the 2022 Media Week Awards (‘Ring My Bell’), launched a billion-dollar scale up brand in the UK, and organised the biggest charity event the industry has seen; The Media Trust Climate Charity Challenge which was awarded the first ever Ad Net Zero Award for Best Business Transformation.

My ambition for the next 12 months is to ensure sustainability is embedded into everyday media planning. I have been working on MG’s new agency proposition which challenges employees to prove & quantify how responsible advertising can unlock competitive advantage for clients.

An endorsement from my Executive Director, Tom Cocker: “Ellie is everyone’s ‘MVP’! She can turn her attention to anything, performing to the highest level. Integral and irreplaceable to colleagues and clients alike, she has excelled in her role in the client team, fast tracked to AD in just 3 years, helping launch a $1bn scale up and cleaning up at industry awards, even taking home the Media Week Grand Prix. She throws herself into agency initiatives, championing neurodiversity and running one of the biggest industry charity events. Ellie is a champion and the most brilliant teammate I’ve had the pleasure to work with.”
