Campaign’s PR Faces to Watch 2026 – Mai Hajouj, Senior Integrated Associate, MENAT, Current Global

Age: 29

Country: United Arab Emirates

Nominated by Luanne D’Souza, Influencers Relations Director:

I’m incredibly proud to nominate Mai for Campaign Middle East’s Faces to Watch. Over the past year, I’ve had the privilege of watching her grow from limited influencer experience into a confident lead across award-winning campaigns for New Balance, Dubai Airports, and Heinz.

Mai is the definition of dependable, she is exceptionally organized, quick to action,  a fast learner, and determined to get the job done right and fast. You always know you can count on her. She manages influencer comms, briefings, content direction and shoots while nurturing her junior team with patience and compassion. Clients adore her and so does her CG team. If cloning was an option, she would definitely be on my no.1 list.

Career highlights

I’m a performance focused Influencer Marketing and PR specialist. I connect brands and audiences through strategic creator partnerships and culturally relevant storytelling. I’ve led multi market campaigns for Dubai Airports and New Balance, and played a key role in award-winning campaigns like Fixby’s “Don’t Look Down” and OMO’s “Art of Stains,” handling media planning, influencer outreach, and securing coverage and event attendees. I focus on creating campaigns that resonate with audiences, drive engagement and conversions, and build lasting brand equity beyond simple impressions.

Guiding principles

Authenticity drives everything I do. I build intentional campaigns rooted in strong relationships, cultural intelligence, and strategic clarity; because real influence creates meaningful impact, not just impressions.
