Ajay Mehta departs WPP Media, ending a decade-long stint
MUMBAI: Ajay Mehta has called time on his decade-long stint at WPP Media, marking the end of a defining run that saw him shape the network’s branded content and creative services landscape. Mehta, who most recently served as head of content and creative services at WPP Media and chief content officer at Mindshare India, exits as the group continues to refresh its creative muscles.
Mehta’s journey within the network spans nearly ten years at Mindshare, where he rose from vice president to senior vice president before taking on the top content role. During this period, he steered content strategy and brand partnerships for several marquee clients, including Hindustan Unilever.
Before his GroupM years, Mehta built a strong foundation at Ogilvy, spending more than a decade across client servicing and strategic roles. His career has been marked by long innings, steady climbs and a flair for crafting content-led brand storytelling.
His departure from WPP Media signals the end of a chapter, but for an industry hand with nearly two decades of creative and content experience, the next act is likely to be just as compelling.
