M+C Saatchi global CEO Zaid Al-Qassab exits
M+C's Zaid Al-Qassab departs, citing a "challenging macro environment."
M+C Saatchi Group CEO Zaid Al‑Qassab has left the global advertising network “by mutual consent” after just two years at the helm.
The company told the London Stock Exchange that Al-Qassab will step down as CEO and board director on 31 March 2026, with leading British business veteran Heather Rabbatts stepping in as interim leader.
The announcement follows a challenging period for M+C Saatchi, with the group forecasting a 7% decline in revenue for calendar year 2025, a figure driven by its performance in Australia.
