Dentsu Creative has elevated Manika Juneja to the role of Chief Operating Officer, marking a key leadership transition within the agency. Juneja announced the development through a LinkedIn post, reflecting on her journey and progression within the organisation.
In her post, she wrote: “I grew into the role of Chief Operating Officer at Dentsu Creative. These past few months have reinforced something I have long believed. Growth isn’t driven by a single campaign, client win, or milestone. It compounds- through great people, honest partnerships, a willingness to keep evolving, and the discipline to deliver consistently. Grateful for the trust and excited about what we are building together.”
Prior to her elevation, Juneja served as Managing Partner at Dentsu Creative, where she led business growth, managed integrated client solutions, and held P&L responsibility across mandates. She also played a key role in scaling capabilities across the network, including consulting-led offerings and new-age verticals such as influencer marketing and video production.
Juneja brings over 15 years of experience in the advertising and digital marketing industry. She spent more than a decade at WATConsult, where she rose through the ranks to become Executive Vice President, overseeing business operations, client leadership, team management, and growth strategy. During her tenure, she also served as Vice President and Associate Vice President, focusing on integrated campaign delivery, digital transformation, and organisational scaling.
She began her career in digital and marketing roles with early stints in social media strategy, campaign management, and brand building, including roles at Della Adventure & Resorts and other early-stage assignments in digital media and experiential marketing.
