Patel announced the appointment on LinkedIn, saying his role at WLDD will involve ensuring the company’s reputation keeps pace with its growth. “I’ve joined WLDD Private Limited as Head of Marketing, with the rather interesting job of making sure our reputation keeps pace with the insane speed at which we’re scaling. Or, more accurately, catapulting into the stratosphere,” he wrote.
Patel spent nearly seven years at Kinnect, joining the agency in 2019 as a Creative Visualiser. During his tenure, he held several roles across creative and marketing, including Associate Director – Marketing, Associate Creative Director – Marketing and Creative Director – Marketing, before becoming Senior Creative Director – Marketing.
