North of England-based full service agency DJS Research has promoted long-time employee Elliot Simmonds to the role of Research Director.

Headquartered in Stockport and owned by husband and wife team Danny and Ali Sims, DJS also has an office in Leeds and works on both consumer and B2B projects across a variety of industry sectors, both in the UK and internationally. Simmonds (pictured) joined more than thirteen years ago as a marketing exec, and most recently was an Associate Director, with particular expertise in education, culture and heritage, and software and technology. During his time with the firm, Simmonds has also helped develop and deliver a number of proprietary tools, including VoicED, the firm's proprietary teacher offer; and Alumnus, its alumni experience benchmarking and affinity tracking tool.

Danny Sims said: 'We are delighted to announce Elliot's promotion to Research Director. Since he first walked through our doors over a decade ago, we knew he had a great deal to offer the company and he has proven to be a huge asset. Not only is he an exceptionally talented researcher, he's been instrumental in driving the business forward. Elliot's promotion is incredibly well deserved - and we're excited to see what the future holds'.
