OUR JUDGING PANEL

WHY THIS AWARD IS DIFFERENT

Dedicated In-House Awards

While other awards are for external agencies, this is exclusively for the in-house community in the EMEA region. This singular focus provides a unique and vital platform to benchmark your work and team against your true peers, judged by a panel who understand the specific challenges and triumphs of the in-house model.

A Celebration of In-House Talent and Culture 

These Awards are your chance to shine a spotlight on the creativity, commitment, and impact of your in-house team. Recognise their achievements and show the industry just how powerful in-house can be when it's firing on all cylinders.

Powered by the Authority of Campaign

As the flagship awards for this sector from Campaign, a win carries unparalleled weight and credibility. It is an endorsement from the industry's most respected voice, providing powerful validation of your team's work to your C-suite and the wider industry.

OUR JUDGES HAVE SPOKEN

  • Thanks so much to Campaign UK for inviting me to judge the In-House Agency Awards again this year.

    It's fantastic to see in-house teams getting the attention they deserve. Without the PR operations that external agencies can run, it's often hard for in-house work to be seen and celebrated by the wider industry. Campaign's embrace of the sector makes those working in-house feel seen, validated and valued.

    Not only that, the winning work will showcase the incredible contribution that in-house teams make to the culture and growth of their brands.

    Having spent time working across both agency and in-house environments, I've seen first-hand the evolution of in-house teams and the increasingly strategic role they play within their organisations.

  • In-housing is simple to say, much harder to do well.

    I’m back on the judging panel for the Campaign In-House Agency Awards 2026.

    In-housing isn’t a trend anymore — it’s a structural shift in how marketing actually gets done: closer to the data, closer to the business, faster, sharper, and more accountable.

    These awards recognise what good really looks like when teams aren’t just making ads, but building capability. If your team’s done work you’re proud of this year, it’s well worth entering.

    — Robert Anderson

    —

  • In-house teams often undersell themselves, so this is your chance to properly shout about it.

    — Neill Torbit

    —

  • Make your entry easy to champion. Lead with one clear idea, then show the line from insight to execution to result, with real numbers where you can.

    — Harshil Varsani

    —

  • Be brief, concise. Your entries don't need to be long, but they need to be sharp.

    — Isabel Sierra Gomez de Leon

  • Whose House? IN-HOUSE! I’m delighted to announce I'll be a judge for the second year of the Campaign In-House Agency Awards.

    These awards provide a platform exclusively for the EMEA in-house community to showcase their culture, benchmark their work against peers, and prove their strategic value to the C-suite.

    If you have delivered outstanding work this year, I strongly encourage you to enter!

"It's fantastic to bring the Campaign In-House Agency Awards back for a second time following its launch in 2025. After recognising a breadth of talent and work from brands' in-house teams last year, Campaign is looking forward to doing the same again in 2026 and with the addition of three new awards. We are introducing categories to celebrate design, copywriting, and work for not-for-profit brands."

Campaign's In-Housing Summit helps you discover how this trend is reshaping marketing operations for brands worldwide. While the In-House Agency Awards provides a platform exclusively for the EMEA in-house community to showcase their culture, benchmark their work against peers and prove their strategic value to the C-Suite, the In-Housing Summit offers a dynamic conference to build on that success. It allows you to explore innovative strategies, share best practices, and connect with like-minded professionals as we dive into the value of bringing creative, media, and digital capabilities in-house.
