Who We Are
Who We Are
What is DAS?
A network of Omnicom agencies that offer specialist marketing and communications services. Set up in the 80s it was essentially a “catch-all” for the services Omnicom didn’t know how to describe, i.e. everything in marketing and communications that isn’t traditional advertising, hence the name—”Diversified” Agency Services. So this includes loads of really interesting disciplines like Branding, Research, PR, Healthcare and Digital marketing.
What is Omnicom?
Think of it as “The Mothership”. The guardian of over a hundred agencies in the advertising, marketing and communications business (and a pretty big one too—with over 175 offices worldwide, working on over 5,000 brands—like VW, Pepsi and the London Olympics!)
What is Omnicom looking for?
