Lindsay Turner, the former CEO of Publicis Media’s Spark Foundry, is to become LadBible Group’s new head of client solutions.
Turner starts the newly-created role at the Manchester-headquartered online publisher on Monday, August 3rd and will report to chief growth officer Colin Gottlieb, who joined the business last year.
She’ll be tasked with leading the new client solutions team, which will include the client, agency and partnership teams.
Jack Cowin, previously head of agency sales, has also been promoted to joint head of client solutions and will work alongside Turner.
LadBible believe the new team will “ensure fully integrated, client-centric solutions in order to drive fresh revenue opportunities and award-winning work”.
During her time at the Publicis Group agency, Lindsay oversaw the merger of Blue 449 and Spark Foundry, which was announced in December.
Turner joined the agency in 2011, when it was known as Walker Media, before becoming managing director, then CEO, of Blue 449 following the departure of Simon Davis.
Colin Gottlieb said: “Solly’s [Solomou] ambition for the group is tremendous. We have recently added significant capabilities to better match the precise needs of clients with our group’s huge audience reach and engagement.
“With Lindsay’s important appointment we’re delighted to add her outstanding track record and invaluable experience to our first-class team. She’s a top-flight operator and I’m very much looking forward to working with her.”
