ICM Boosts Field and Ops Strength

In the UK, Creston-owned ICM Group has strengthened its data collection and field services with the promotion of Neil Sykes to Operations Director in the UK, and Rebekah Joseph as Field Director at subsidiary Fieldwork UK.

Sykes has more than twenty years of data collection experience, the last eleven of them at ICM Direct - before this he worked at NOP and MORI.

Joseph will lead the team and the network of interviewers at the Group's face-to-face fieldwork business, as the Group launches a new CAPI offering to clients. She joins from Ipsos MORI where she spent fourteen years rising through the ranks, serving most recently as UK Field Director.

ICM Group Director James Turner comments: 'Neil has become pivotal in delivery of our research community and mobile research offerings... We're delighted that he leads the team into 2012'. He adds: 'ICM offers clients the right solution whether it's traditional face to face or a cutting edge mobile data collection. We delighted to welcome Rebekah to the team.'

Just over a week ago, full service subsidiary ICM Research added former Synovate exec Tom Bailey as Head of Analytics, Ruth Moyer as Research Directors in the Technology team and Matt Draper in the same role in Financial Services
