New MD for TNS UK

Following the integration of TNS and NFO WorldGroup, Stephen Factor, formerly CEO of NFO WorldGroup UK, has been appointed MD of TNS in the UK. The new organisation combines the ad hoc divisions of TNS with NFO WorldGroup.

The integration forms the largest ad hoc market research business in the UK. The senior management team, following the restructure, also includes Tony Mastel as Deputy MD and Nigel Spackman as Executive Director.

According to Factor, 'Bringing together such a significant pool of talent, skills and resources provides a great opportunity for us to enhance the service we offer to our clients... The whole management team will stay clearly focused on our primary objective - delivering tangible value to our clients' businesses'.

TNS completed the acquisition of NFO in July 2003.
