LONDON, UK / ACCESSWIRE / June 25, 2019 / Global digital consultancy Appnovation has made two key appointments to its senior leadership team for the UK and EMEA to enhance its full-service digital capabilities and strengthen its presence across the region.
R/GA Client Service Director Jez Proctor has been appointed Managing Director for the UK, while Amanda Glasgow joins as Appnovation's Head of Experience for EMEA from Publicis Sapient where she was Creative Director.
Jez, who played a pivotal role in creating O2's award-winning Virtual Michael Bublé campaign, will lead activation for all of Appnovation's client projects in the market, working alongside Head of Technology for the UK, Colin McClure, and collaborating closely with Appnovation's Belgium MD Piet-Hein van Drie.
Meanwhile Amanda, an award-winning digital creative and a former judge at the D&AD Awards, will contribute her 25 years' digital design expertise, to boost Appnovation's creative consultancy offer across EMEA, working with clients on developing cutting-edge digital solutions.
Based in the UK, Amanda will work closely with the consultancy's other regional leaders: Andrew Dunbar, General Manager EMEA, John Sutherby, who has been appointed Head of Technology EMEA, and Annick Daems, who becomes Head of People Success EMEA.
Annick, who joined Appnovation in 2016 following its acquisition of European digital agency, Wunderkraut Benelux, will now lead the roll-out of Appnovation's newly revamped brand across all of its offices in the region.
The new appointments are part of Appnovation's international expansion drive and aim to ensure the company's full-service agency model is reflected across its key markets.
