Synovate UK appoints Commercial Director


15 December 2009

LONDON — Leading marketing intelligence agency Synovate has announced the appointment of Neil Davy to the newly created role of Commercial Director in the UK.

Formerly part of Synovate's Global Client Relations (GCR) team looking after some of the company's key global clients, Davy's focus as Commercial Director is now on the UK business. As such, he will lead Synovate UK's development and client relations activities, partnering with Synovate's team of Key Account Directors to ensure the effective use of expertise and further build the company's relationships with clients.

With over 12 years experience in research, Davy started his career in Hong Kong and spent several years working at WPP and Interpublic research agencies in Taiwan, mainland China (Shanghai) and Japan. He moved back to the UK five years ago to take up a Global Account Director role at Research International before joining Synovate in 2006.

Commented Jill Telford, CEO of Synovate UK: "I am delighted that Neil has taken this pivotal role in the UK. He has extensive research experience, most notably in branding, communications and new product development research across sectors. Most importantly, he truly understands the business issues of our clients so we in turn can ensure we are matching the right solution and expertise to the right needs to truly bring the best of Synovate to our clients."
