Saad Khan joins DDB Mudra as President and Managing Partner – Growth & Strategy

Saad Khan has joined DDB Mudra India as President and Managing Partner – Growth & Strategy. He will lead business and build on strategic capabilities for the West region of the Group.

With more than two decades of experience under his belt, Khan has worked with brands such as Coca-Cola, Amul, Reckitt Benckiser, Tata Motors, ITC Foods, Volvo Cars, Honda, and Nerolac. His strategic expertise in building the Tata Motors’ brand has played a significant role in its success within the EV category.

Prior to joining the DDB Mudra Group, Khan worked with FCB Ulka overseeing strategy in Mumbai and Bengaluru.

Rahul Mathew, Chief Creative Officer, DDB Mudra Group, said: “For us, strategic thinking and creativity aren’t departmental functions. We’ve always believed our core to be great creativity built on strong thinking. And Saad embodies the same and will strengthen this belief; not just in the kind of work that we do, but in the conversations we have.”

Khan said: “It’s been around 21 years since Rahul and I worked together. My recent chats with him made me realise that we are still as passionate about advertising as we were a couple of decades ago. I am looking forward to hitting the road with him once more.”
