Meyritz to Lead Business Development at SPA

UK-based agency business intelligence firm SPA Future Thinking has appointed Tom Meyritz, formerly of QuestBack, Lightspeed and Ciao, as Commercial Director, responsible for leading business development across all areas of the company.

Meyritz left QuestBack to run his own business development consultancy, Meyritz Consulting, after a spell as Head of Business Development at QuestBack UK. His earlier roles at Lightspeed Research and Ciao were also in bus dev.

CEO Jon Priest comments: 'Tom brings a wealth of experience of working within the research industry. I have no doubt the business will benefit from his considerable knowledge.'

The company was formed by a merger in September 2010, and acquired both Munro Group and Essential Research the following year. It turned over around £20m in 2013 and has offices in the UK, France and Italy, with a web site at www.spafuturethinking.com .
