About

Platform Insider Knowledge Meets
Pattern Recognition

Hala Al-Ajil
Google & YouTube, 13 years TikTok UK, Agency Acceleration Lead MENA Markets, 10 years

I spent 13 years at Google and YouTube, with a decade based in Dubai building creator partnerships across MENA. Most recently I led Agency Acceleration and Incubation at TikTok UK, scaling agency-creator performance and revenue growth.

I’ve seen thousands of creator businesses succeed and fail. I know what makes the difference between businesses that scale and businesses that wobble at the first platform shock. That pattern recognition, built over more than a decade inside the platforms themselves, is what I bring to every client engagement.

I’ve championed initiatives like Batala, the region-wide programme empowering female creators across MENA. I’ve worked with broadcasters, MCNs, CSPs and independent creators across three continents. I know what separates content that breaks through from content that gets ignored.

Platform Insider Knowledge

I Didn’t Just Work With These Platforms.
I Worked Inside Them.

I didn’t just consult on creator partnerships from the outside. I built the programmes. I scaled them across regions. I’ve sat in the rooms where platform priorities get set, and I’ve spent years watching how those priorities shape creator businesses for better and worse. That’s the perspective I bring to clients now.

Why Me

What Makes Me Different

Strategic Architecture

I help clients build properly diversified creator businesses, not single-platform empires. The work covers multi-platform strategy, owned audience design and structural risk reduction. The result is a business that grows on its own terms.

MENA and UK Expertise

13 years inside the platforms, including a decade in Dubai building creator ecosystems across the Middle East and North Africa, and the last two years inside TikTok UK. I work across both regions and understand the nuances neither group sees clearly.

AI as Amplification

I help clients cut through hundreds of AI tools to identify the three to five that genuinely drive results for their business. AI is a capability, not a positioning statement, and I treat it that way.
