W+K India has hired Shreekant Srinivasan as Head of Business for the Delhi office. In this role, he will lead the new business agenda as well as head the account management function for the office.
Srinivasan joined W+K from McCann Worldgroup India where he was a Senior Vice-President leading the Maggi portfolio and the Expo Dubai business.
In a career spanning over 21 years, he has worked in multiple agencies, set up new offices and managed brands like Maggi, Thums Up, Chevrolet, Dominos, Expo Dubai 2020 and Royal Enfield to name a few.
"In the 21 years of my advertising life, I have worked with some really interesting bunch of individuals. From oddballs to seasoned surgeons to mavericks to absolute bat shit crazy, I have seen the best of work come out of each one of my creative partnerships. And this belief that creation is inclusive and personality-agnostic is the biggest driving force at W+K. If you have a hunger for good work and a love for advertising, you will blend right in. With Paddy and Ayesha, I intend to build this inclusive creative culture on the shoulders of some ground-breaking work," said Shreekant Srinivasan, Head of Business Delhi, Wieden Kennedy India.
