‘We are delighted to have made these appointments, while recognising the strong contribution from our Data Processing department,’ Joint MD Andrew Tharme told DRNO. ‘The arrival of Michelle Young as Finance Director will help us quickly improve our infrastructure to support our growth, while Noreen Kinsey actually rejoins the agency.
