UK— Optimisa Research has made six new appointments, including Louise Hall as research director, following a number of recent client wins.

Public sector specialist Hall has held roles at TNS, Natwest, and Sweeney Pinedo, and brings experience in the financial, social, and technology sectors.

Gemma Allen, joining as a research manager, was previously at Hall & Partners, and Lindsay Hart, senior research executive, brings public sector, financial, FMCG, and B2B experience.

The 6 new appointments might also have something to do with the 9+ departures in the last year alone. Good to see a positive spin, though!
