Opinium Hires Millward Brown Director Emily Dickinson

In London, full service agency Opinium Research has appointed former Kantar Millward Brown exec Emily Dickinson as Business Development & Marketing Director.

Founded in 2007, Opinium offers qual and quant research and consultancy across five practice areas - brand and communications, product and service development, stakeholder, market intelligence and thought leadership. In addition, the company owns and manages panels of UK consumers, IFAs and small businesses, and runs an omnibus which interviews 2000 UK adults in each wave. The firm was recently awarded Best Place to Work at the MRS Awards for the second year in a row. Dickinson (pictured) joins from Kantar Millward Brown, where she became the youngest director in the firm's history, latterly serving as Director, Marketing and Development. She joined the firm in 2012 as a Project Executive, working on B2B accounts.

Commenting on the appointment, Opinium MD James Endersby said: 'After yet another year of strong growth (34%), Opinium is thrilled to be attracting the most ambitious new talent to support its existing and future clients. Emily's reputation precedes her, and she will have a huge impact on our future. I'm absolutely delighted she has chosen to join our agency, and I know our clients will feel the same'.
