It speaks to the unique quality of the people we want at Ogilvy, people who have the passion to push beyond the expected and mundane and truly liberate the brands they work on.
Ogilvy South Africa is the number one communications group in the country.
In 1948, David Ogilvy founded the agency that would become Ogilvy & Mather. Starting with no clients and a staff of two, he built his company into one of the eight largest advertising networks in the world with more than 500 offices and 20,000 staff across 169 cities. After merging with Ogilvy in 1984, Ogilvy & Mather RS-TM dominated the local creative scene during the first decade and over the next twenty years was recognized as a brand-focused agency that acted with integrity. Today, Ogilvy & Mather is the leader in the industry, focused on building and transforming brands. Employing more than 900 staff across three offices, O&M remains true to David’s vision; we still see ourselves as a company that does more than ads and have proven that by maintaining our humility and an almost divine discontent at our past successes, we can do more than stay relevant. The company was one of the first advertising agencies in South Africa to acquire an A Empowerdex rating, and prides itself on producing work, hiring talent and working with shareholders and suppliers in a way that is truly representative of the people of this country. Today, we’re a company that reflects the energy and diversity of our country and are a BEE Level 3 contributor. The company has always played a meaningful role in the communities that surround them, as well as through using ideas and innovation to communicate the causes of others. O&M SA contributes financially and in-kind to many worthwhile social initiatives. In 2012, as they have since its inception, the company answered the call by Madiba to give 67 minutes of time to those in need. O&M staff, suppliers and clients joined forces with the South African Department of Education in their endeavour to to fix up the infrastructure in deserving schools.
