Ilker Gaon's Linkedin Analytics

With over 14 years of experience spanning agency, client, and publisher roles, I’ve worked with industry leaders such as Vodafone and clients of Publicis Media and WPP Group across different markets. My expertise includes online and offline media planning, global brand leadership, strategic FMCG management for P&G, and ethnomarketing & influencer sales initiatives in Germany. I have a proven track record of delivering impactful results, including driving a 200% revenue increase and organizing the Turkish German Business Summit—a landmark event that united over 200 industry leaders—at Avrupadan, executing award-winning projects at Vodafone, and earning top client evaluation scores from P&G while at Starcom Turkey. Over the past two years, I’ve deliberately transitioned to high-impact, project-based roles, leveraging my diverse experience to deliver immediate results. This shift has allowed me to focus on leading client transitions, supporting companies in business development, building partnerships, and driving sales growth. Currently, I am leading the L’Oréal account transition at Publicis Media Turkey, where I’m responsible for building a team of 40, ensuring seamless operational alignment, and executing efficient handover and onboarding processes to integrate L’Oréal’s media strategy and operations smoothly. I operate in a hybrid capacity, traveling between Hamburg and Istanbul to maintain a strong on-site presence while ensuring productivity remotely.
