Meher Mumtaz

Brand Strategy and Digital Marketing Leader | Human-centred Design Expert | UX & UI | Organisational Culture and Change Management.

My expertise spans brand and marketing strategy, enterprise and technology architecture, UX and UI design, and leadership and coaching. I am known for passionately applying a deeply human-centred approach across disciplines, ensuring that complex transformation programmes deliver both commercial impact and lasting cultural value.

I’ve worked in large global organisations such as Nestle, Western Union, Evelyn Partners (wealth management) and at award winning creative agencies such as Ogilvy and FCB London. I have partnered closely with regional markets, product and development teams, corporate affairs, HR, to align brand experience with business objectives and corporate strategy. My last role was as Head of Brand Experience and Digital Services, while being a key steering member of the innovation and AI taskforce. I’m skilled at collaborating with multi-stakeholder environments and driving large-scale change. I’ve led global brand initiatives, launched digital products, and helped organisations modernise how they engage with clients, customers and internal teams.

During a career transition, I trained as a coach and I run team days and workshops blending in my corporate experience to inspire teams, enhance collaboration and ultimately improve delivery. I am also the founder of the proprietary Elephant Sessions, which draw inspiration from ‘holding circle’ modalities to help clear stagnancy and smooth out people dynamics.
