Hull agency Summit has appointed Kristina Kalpokaite as its new head of paid media.
Kalpokaite, who moves from RS Components, will be responsible for leading Summit’s approach across paid search, programmatic display and paid social.
The appointment is part of a significant growth period for Summit, following its acquisition by TCC Global in September.
Hedley Aylott, co-founder and CEO of Summit said: “The appointment of experienced senior talent, such as Kristina, forms a vital part in achieving our growth plans. She comes from RS Components, exactly the kind of company we want to work with, and has invaluable insight from both client and agency side. She is going to be a fantastic asset to the company at this exciting time. ”
Kalpokaite added: “It’s a hugely important time for Summit and I’m thrilled to join the team and be part of this journey. I’m looking forward to using my experience to help deliver Summit’s ambitious growth targets.”
Launched in 2000, the company has grown to over 160 employees, and now turns over in excess of £47 million per year. It works with clients including Argos, Reckitt Benckiser, Selfridges, Homebase and Carpetright.
