Ipsos Observer's Jathanna Adds MENA Role

Vincy Jathanna's role as Ipsos Observer India Service Line Head has expanded to include responsibility for Ipsos Observer, MENA.

Ipsos Observer is the Group's data and delivery business and offers field, omnibus and overnight solutions, and custom panel services. Jathanna (pictured) joined Ipsos more than six years ago as an AD and moved into his current position nearly three years ago. Prior to this, he was Manager, Client Solutions for Nielsen India, and a Field Executive for AC Nielsen-ORG MARG.

In his new dual role, Jathanna will divide his time equally between the two markets. For the India business, he will continue to report to Ipsos India CEO, Amit Adarkar; while for the MENA region, he will report directly to Panicos Ioannides, MD UAE; and indirectly to Edouard Monin, CEO MENA for the development work in MENA, with a dotted line to Jeremy McNamara, Ipsos Global Service Line Leader, Observer.

Commenting on the news, Adarkar said: 'Ipsos Observer India operations are well established; the suite of services for data plus services are leveraged by our roster of clients in India and overseas and I would credit Vincy and his team for this incredible work in growing the service line exponentially, riding on quality and client attentiveness'.
