Public Relations is a busy industry to be in right now, so, when word got out that O2PR was expanding its team, we were all excited to hear who would be coming onboard. We were even more excited when they helped reduce some of our workload. Thanks guys. Anyway, we would like to give a warm welcome to our two new colleagues; Sean Dolphin, O2PR General Manager and Randa Kaman PR Executive.

As O2 continues to grow internally and regionally, it was only a matter of time before more people joined our rapidly expanding PR team.  These vacancies included recruiting an additional PR Executive and creating a new position Regional O2PR Manager for the GCC region.

We would like to welcome both Sean and Randa to O2 and to the PR team and wish them all the best with their future careers.

 “The rate of growth that we have seen as an agency in the last two years across the GCC has been phenomenal,” said O2MC’s Managing Director, Mohammed Johmani. 

“With an increase in the number of projects, new services and clients, Sean’s appointment was necessary for our continued growth and expansion.  Sean will play an active role in building a strong network of communication and enhancing our reputation both here in Dubai and in our other offices in Bahrain, Abu Dhabi and Saudi. Driving our communications strategy, Sean will play a key role in helping O2PR achieve its vision of becoming the first UAE agency to provide PR services on a global scale.”

Commenting on his recent appointment, Sean Dolphin said:

“Communications and Public Relations are extremely competitive businesses in the region and I am delighted to be joining O2 at such an exciting time.  Although we have a number of big projects and challenges ahead it is an honor to be working with a company that has such a dedicated team and excellent track record of client delivery. I look forward to working with the O2PR teams throughout the GCC and am confident that together we can help O2 realize its ambitious goals.”

Before joining O2, Sean worked as a Senior Communications Consultant with Carr Communications in Dublin, Ireland. He has directed a number of nationwide advertising and PR campaigns over the past 7 years for clients such as the Road Safety Authority, Environmental Protection Agency and Department of Health and has over 10 years experience dealing with the media and providing training to journalists and broadcasters.

Sean specializes in working with Financial and Government organizations, and has a strong reputation for successful Crisis Management. He has written numerous speeches for CEO’s and Government Ministers, and delivers a wide range of training courses including Business Management Training, Presentation Skills, Communication and Media Skills.

In 2003, Sean was elected the youngest ever Mayor of North Dublin in 2003, managing an annual Budget of €150m and a population of over 250,000. He played a key role in shaping economic development policy which has seen north Dublin become the fastest growing region in Ireland.
