Alter Agents Hires to 'Almost Double' Staff in a Year

In Los Angeles, full service MR firm Alter Agents has appointed five new members of staff, including Lauren DeWitt Thompson as Research Director; Ryan Palmer, Adrienne Scotti and Roxanne Benoun as Research Managers, and Taryn Akiyoshi as a Senior Research Analyst.

The company has in-depth experience of brand strategy and communications, with a focus on helping clients to understand consumers, and says the hires will ensure a high level of client service as it continues its 'swift expansion' - it has now nearly doubled its headcount over the past year.

Dewitt Thompson joins from Santa Monica, CA-based Murphy Research where she was Senior Research Manager, and has also worked as an Analyst and in marketing roles.
'We have always taken a people-first approach to our business, comments CEO Rebecca Brooks, 'and the benefits of that mindset are clear as we continue to experience rapid growth, even during a time of uncertainty. We are thankful to engage talented people like Lauren and our other new employees to help us continue our hands-on, creative and strategic approach to projects. Building close partnerships with our clients is part of our ethos as a company, and each team member is a significant contributor to the success of this approach'.
