Omnicom to cut 15,000 jobs by year-end

SAPO15 September 2026 at 18:05

Omnicom will proceed with the elimination of approximately 15,000 jobs by the end of the year. The advertising company expects to end 2026 with around 105,000 employees, representing a reduction of approximately 15,000 workers compared to the end of 2025.

The measure comes in the context of the integration of Interpublic Group, known as IPG, which is being incorporated into Omnicom's structure. This process is part of a major restructuring that the advertising group is implementing.

Omnicom is one of the largest companies in the advertising sector worldwide, and this reorganization represents one of the biggest transformations in the media and communications sector in recent years. The IPG integration process is expected to dictate the pace and scale of job cuts in the coming months.

Why this matters

The article directly affects advertising sector workers in Portugal, where Omnicom and IPG have significant operations, and alerts to the consolidation trend in the sector that may lead to more restructuring in the industry in the coming years.
