About

Eugene

Eugene Omolo is a storyteller at heart, strategist in mind and Creative by trade. With over fifteen year in advertising across Kenya and the region, he has built a career shaping ideas that don’t just land—they last. Currently Head of Creative Solutions at WPP-ScanGroup, Eugene leads integrated teams across SCANAD and Ogilvy Africa, driving work that balances commercial impact with creative ambition.

His experience spans some of the continent’s most influential brands, from banking and telecoms to FMCG and public sector, with a particular interest in ideas that sit at the intersection of culture, business, and technology. He is as comfortable crafting a fame-worthy campaign as he is mentoring the next generation of creatives or interrogating the role of AI in modern storytelling.

Eugene believes the best work is both effective and unforgettable—and that the real magic happens when those two are not in competition, but in sync.
