Ogilvy UK has won the ‘Best Large Agency of the Year Award’, the top prize at the Oystercatchers’ Awards last night.
The award ceremony celebrates excellence across the industry, showcasing how agencies deliver growth and creativity for their clients.
Judged by a panel of global brand marketing experts, the creative agency was shortlisted in five of the nine categories, including ‘Large Agency of the Year’, ‘Best Large Agency Culture’, ‘Best Agency Marketing’, ‘Best Agency Credentials’ and ‘Champion for Change’.
“A win at the Oystercatchers Awards demonstrates success in working with clients to deliver growth, creativity, and excellence,” Ogilvy UK chief growth officer, Laura Vipond, said. “The awards recognise agency specialisms rather than specific campaigns, so winning Best Large Agency of the Year is a huge accolade and a brilliant start to 2023. We are thrilled also to have also been highly commended for Nudgestock, in the Best Agency Marketing category, and Best Agency Credentials.”
