Media agency operating DV360, Google Campaign Manager, and social ad platforms
Starcom Middle East is a 501–1,000-person media agency headquartered in Dubai, part of the publicly listed Publicis Groupe. The tech stack reveals a pure advertising operations footprint: DV360, Google Campaign Manager 360, Meta Conversions API, and native managers for Snap, TikTok, and Twitter ads—no data warehouse, no CRM, no creative tools. Hiring is concentrated in marketing (20 roles, mostly senior and manager-level), and active projects center on campaign measurement (CM floodlights, 3P tracker, MCAPI integration) and social team scaling, suggesting a push to increase in-house execution and real-time optimization.
