Promotions across the board for ICM

Iain Carruthers, head of qualitative research (pictured), has been appointed to the Board of Directors, and existing director Alex Knight has been given the wider remit of insight division chief operating officer and chief financial officer.

Other promotions: Richard Johnston has been appointed to the newly-created role of head of finance; Mona Blaute has been promoted to production director; Peter Cornick and Sarah Nitting-Fullin have both been promoted to associate director and Liina Tohv has been promoted to senior research executive in the Omnibus team.

New appointments are Seelin Ho as research executive; and Rebecca Hitchmough and Donna Quinn are new recruits to the ICM’s Academy programme.

“It’s always a delight to promote people from within the business,” said Andrew Wiseman, managing director of ICM Group. “Being able to do so is a testament not only to their talent, but to our people development programme, which now includes the Academy specifically designed for graduates entering the market research profession.

“Those who have been promoted, and our new recruits, will be crucial to our continued growth this year and I look forward to watching each of them develop their career within the ICM Group.”
