The thesis

Why this org is unusual

Two Co-Chief Operating Officers report directly to the CEO, an uncommon structure for a holding-company model of this size.

This reflects Omnicom’s post-IPG integration choice to retain parallel operational leadership rather than consolidating under a single COO. The structure preserves continuity from both legacy Omnicom and IPG while centralizing finance, legal and technology functions at the enterprise level.

  • Dual Co-COO structure
  • CEO compensation fully equity-at-risk through 2028
  • Post-merger enterprise integration focus
