Hires and Co-MD's Return Boost Freemavens

London-based insights and analytics growth consultancy Freemavens has announced appointments in its Client Services team, as well as the return of Co-MD Lucy Thompson from maternity leave.

The firm was founded in 2013 and is owned by marketing services group MSQ. Freemavens employs analysts, data scientists and strategists who are bi-lingual fluent/native speakers, allowing the firm to understand local cultural nuances in addition to language.

In the firm's Client Services team, Jon Spencer (pictured below, with Lucy Thompson above) is appointed as a Director. He joins from Kantar where he served as Senior Client Lead, running strategic insight programmes for major global clients. Katie Hampton also joins the unit, from dunnhumby.

Freemavens also has a refreshed brand identity and a new web site. Co-MD Eleanor Lloyd Malcolm says of her senior colleague's return: 'We're thrilled to have Lucy back in the Leadership Team. We're in a period of rapid growth and transformation; collaborative leadership will help us achieve our bold ambition for human-centred, tech-enabled growth at pace'.
