Campaign's Creative Faces to Watch 2025 – Malaika Menon, Account Director, Them Again
Age: 26
Nominated by Ben Griffiths, Executive Creative Director and Partner:
I met Malaika during my first stint in Dubai when she was an intern, after reuniting this year, I can confirm she is an increasingly rare character in today's industry. Someone who is excited by the job, who strives for great work, but also, holds creative and client equally accountable. Good ideas aren't enough, you need the right people to help sell them and bring them to life. And Malaika is a great partner to creatives and clients alike. I know that anyone who has worked with her knows how lucky we are to have her at Them Again.
Career highlights
Embracing a rollercoaster of five years rising through the ranks, I've graduated from a fresh-faced intern at Impact BBDO to my current position as Account Director at THEM AGAIN. Bringing my passion for the industry to life, working on amazing global clients with great people.
After picking up some shiny awards with the team, I was nominated as the only Account Manager for the LIA Creative Liaisons Mentee Program in 2023.
When I'm not working, I indulge in my passions for art, movies, music, and food. And sometimes, getting too many tattoos.
Guiding principles
Advertising is a wild beast to work in, and I've always believed that if you're not making yourself-and others-a little uncomfortable, you're not doing it right.
I've dabbled a lot to land here, and as cheesy as it sounds, my passion proves advertising is exactly where I'm meant to be.
