Human8 Promotes to Optimise Talent and Portfolio

Human8 has promoted Amy Perifanos, previously VP of Commercial Solutions North America, to global Chief Portfolio Officer, with a seat on the Global Leadership Team.

Consumer insight provider InSites Consulting changed its name to Human8 in March last year, having in the previous five years acquired nine agencies: Direction First, Columinate, eÿeka, Join the Dots, ABN Impact, Answer, Space Doctors, Gongos and Happy Thinking People.

Perifanos joined Gongos more than ten years ago, and led new practices it launched focused on Insight Curation and later Strategy and Implementation. In her new position she will play a 'transformative' role in shaping Human8's future, steering the 'growth and optimisation' of its global portfolio and helping to ensure consultants have the skills they need to meet clients' challenges in the future. Human8 says the move reflects the fact that it 'puts positive change at the heart of its business and helps clients to do the same'.

CEO Camille Nicita comments: 'Amy is no stranger to driving success. As VP of Commercial Solutions in the US and a strong contributor to the US Leadership team, she has played a pivotal role in shifting our organisation from a traditional marketing research firm to a game-changing consulting agency. Amy's purpose-driven style and strong entrepreneurial spirit will serve us well in this role and on our Global Leadership Team. We are thrilled to see her shine in this role'.

The firm employs around 800 people across 24 locations, and is online at www.wearehuman8.com .
