Campaign’s Digital Faces to Watch 2024 – Abdul Gamieldien, Senior Account Executive, Seven Media
Age: 29
Nominated by Sharan Sunner, Managing Director:
Abdul has worked on some of our most complex and biggest clients since day one of joining the agency. His resilience and dedication quickly built a sense of trust amongst the team – we always know he will pick up the phone and respond to something urgent, whenever needed, and not only that, but he also holds a wealth of knowledge across his client work. He’s a rare talent who will knuckle down to get the job done, no matter how hard the task, with a solutions-first approach whilst always having a smile on his face.
Career highlights
I am someone who always loved anything social media. In 2022, I took the plunge and switched from a career in aviation that spanned almost ten years to social media management, one of the best decisions I have ever made! I pride myself on being someone who never cracks under pressure and can take on any challenge that springs my way. My campaign highlights in two years are nothing short of astounding – including The National Experts Program, Hilton, Reaching the Last Mile, and Manchester City to name a few.
Guiding principles
The greatest value of the digital field is diving into the heart of conversations between brands and people. For me, it’s about turning every post and message into a meaningful connection, making sure we’re not just talking at our audience, but with them. I believe in being authentic, and always being ready to listen and respond with genuine care. My approach is to make our clients feel like a trusted friend in the digital world, one post at a time.
Side hustle
When I’m off the clock, you’ll find me either snapping photos of the little things in life or jet-setting to new places, interacting with new cultures and meeting people along the way. My big mission? To taste the best dish from every corner of the globe. It’s all about discovering flavors, people, and new experiences.
