Campaign’s PR Faces to Watch 2022 – Ranin Hamdoun, Associate Account Manager, Golin MENA
Age: 26
Amjad Saqer, Senior Account Manager, Golin MENA: Ranin’s ambition and appetite to explore the unknown is what struck me the most. She is young, full of life, creates a positive ambience around and is definitely one who strives through challenges. Her mentoring skills to the junior members of the team is an example that all organizations need “leaders” not just “managers”.
Her quest to deliver exceptional service for all her clients is further strengthened by her natural ability, strategic thinking, diligent research and interpersonal skills. All of these traits enable her to be a highly skilled communications professional, a valued member of our team and an asset that is truly valued and appreciated by all our clients.
Career highlights
I started my journey in the communications industry 4 years ago, where I had the privilege of managing countless high-profile accounts in various multinational agencies. Key accounts where I took ownership in strategic thinking, media relations and supporting in launching campaigns which include: OSN, LEGO , Jumeirah Group, TODA (Theatre of Digital Arts) and GITEX Shoppers. I also proudly led my client “Museum of Illusions” during its launch, to the win the 2019 MEPRA Award in the “Best Use of Limited Budget” category. I also take pride in having organized the press conference for the Iconic Majida Al Roumi during the Abu Dhabi Classics event in 2020.
Guiding principles
“You’ve got to find what you love. Your work is going to fill a large part of your life, and the only way to be truly satisfied is to do what you believe is great work. The only way to do great work is to love what you do.” Steve Jobs.
Side hustle
Part of the day which makes me feel most alive is giving Group Fitness Exercise classes at the gym. It is so uplifting being a part of someone’s journey in living a better healthy lifestyle. There is nothing like that feeling you get when you are doing what you love.
