DJS Research Hires Six, Promotes Six

North of England-based agency DJS Research has made six new appointments, while promoting six existing members of staff.

Kelly Wray (pictured) joins as Senior Research Executive, after nearly three years at pharma MR specialist Adelphi Real World; former JRA Research and Millward Brown exec Anna Teofilo-Sanchez joins as Research Executive; and former Knowsley Metropolitan Borough Council researcher Lottie Connolie and recent University of Aberdeen graduate Naomi Potter become Junior Research Executives. In addition, engineering, advertising and retail sector exec Liz Kershaw takes up the position as Accounts Assistant, and Alison Davidson joins as Senior Field Executive from research consultancy Morris Hargreaves McIntyre.

The firm has also promoted existing staff members Kate Slater, from Associate Director to Research Director; Charlotte Sykes from Research Manager to Associate Director; and Rebecca Harris, Alex McCluckie and David Marchant, all from Research Managers to Senior Research Managers. In addition, Emma France moves into the role of Junior Research Executive, having previously worked in the firm's Data Entry team, and served as an Administration Assistant.

In a statement, DJS Research said its 'busy recruitment period' can be attributed to the expansion seen in the last financial year, when the agency marked its tenth year of double digit growth, as well as a 17% increase in turnover.
