Zusammenfassung
I was born in Switzerland, to Spanish parents, moving on to Madrid when I was five. I completed my Baccalauréat at Lyçée Français, graduated in Business Administration at UCM, and later pursued a Master's degree in Business-Marketing at ESIC University.
My first work experience was at the communications group Bates, where I spent a decade working my way up from a trainee to assuming key responsibilities for renowned brands such as Mercedes-Benz, Telefónica, and BellSouth. I had the privilege of working with clients in both Spain and the US, contributing to the agency's strong client relationships and business success. Additionally, I played a crucial role in enhancing the operations of LATAM's network offices and facilitating their business development through negotiations and agreements.
Back in Spain, I faced a significant challenge in my career when I was appointed as the CEO of Saatchi & Saatchi Spain. My primary objective was to revitalize the agency's financial situation. Through a comprehensive reorganization of operations and instilling a fresh mindset within the team, I successfully eliminated inefficiencies and fostered a healthier relationship with clients. The agency was able to regain its reputation as a trusted marketing communications partner, rebuilding clients' confidence and achieving business growth throughout my eight-year tenure.
After attempting various other ventures in the declining mass advertising industry with limited success, I redirected my career toward the flourishing digital economy. Initially, at Google Spain, I played a crucial role in facilitating digital transformation for major marketing organizations. Later at Casting Workbook, I spearheaded the development of a comprehensive and advanced suite of cloud-based casting applications for the entertainment industry, catering to Spanish-speaking markets worldwide. Now at Samy Alliance, I'm tackling, alongside my peers, new opportunities such as creator-generator content, and innovative excellence in the realm of the new social media playground.
Over the years, I have gained a vast knowledge of business and brand creativity in various markets and industries. My skill set includes a combination of technical and interpersonal abilities. I take pleasure in offering strategic insights and delivering exceptional results to clients. Additionally, I am adept at leveraging technology and content strategy to enhance marketing and operations in the ever-evolving media landscape.
I live in Madrid alongside my wife Alba, our daughter, Alba Jr, and baby, Felipe Jr.
