The business will be managed out of the agency's Chennai office.
After appointing Ogilvy India as its creative agency, international human resources service provider Ma Foi Randstad has awarded its media duties to Mindshare. The business will be managed by the agency's Chennai office.
Aditya Mishra, head, marketing and staffing business, Ma Foi Randstad India confirms the news to afaqs! and says that the company liked the work that Mindshare had done on Randstad. "The spirit of partnership that it has demonstrated globally is outstanding and we wanted the same spirit for India," he adds.
This is one of the few businesses that Mindshare has won in this year. In February, the Chennai branch of Mindshare won the media mandate for Tamil Nadu-based real-estate developer, SPR&RG.
For the record, Ma Foi Randstad India is a division of the global Randstad Holding.
