Qureshi Gears up for Business

At a time when some research companies are streamlining, new UK agency Qureshi is continuing with its expansion plans as it continues to hire for its new offices in London.

According to Bob Qureshi, (the former group director of business development at Aegis Research and MD of Harris Research (TNS)) 'I have been very pleased with the number of talented staff eager to join Qureshi and I am pleased to announce that Chris Watson has joined us from BMRB. Chris held the enviable position as head of BMRB Direct - providing cost effective solutions for large scale studies. In particular, Chris was responsible for managing key CRM studies and set up a number of advanced reporting formats for major clients. We are also joined by Barbara Gerding, who has much experience in managing global tracking studies. Barbara is multilingual and has strong experience in the telecoms sector. Barbara joins from NFO Europe as a project manager.'

This month has also seen the launch of the agency's website at www.qureshi-research.com which Mr Qureshi believes 'communicates the image and positioning we have been working to achieve'.
