East & Southern Africa

Overview

At Hallmark Marketing Africa, I served in a regional creative leadership role, supporting multi-country campaigns across East and Southern Africa. The engagement spanned Kenya, Uganda, Tanzania, Rwanda, Zambia, and Malawi — requiring cohesive creative direction, cross-market consistency, and production precision across diverse audiences.

Scope of Work

Regional campaign concept development

  • Key visual (KV) creation and adaptation

  • Advocacy and promotional materials

  • Marketing reports and structured presentations

  • Event branding and experiential support

  • Cross-country rollout systems

Beyond execution, the role required oversight, ensuring that every asset maintained visual integrity and strategic alignment across markets.

Creative Approach

Developed scalable design frameworks that could be adapted efficiently across countries while maintaining brand clarity.

Structured Campaign Architecture

Built key visuals and layout systems that anchored entire campaign ecosystems — from print to digital to event environments.

Production Excellence

Ensured files were technically accurate, print-ready, and aligned with brand standards across different production environments.
