Search specialist Epiphany has expanded its senior team with two high-profile hires.
Kerry Fyans is joining as Director of Strategic Growth and Partnerships and Gareth Rees as Director of Planning. The duo will be based in Leeds and focus on Epiphany’s use of audience data and planning, working closely with the newly formed Jaywing Intelligence.
After a decade working in the UK, latterly as Associate Director at Carat, Kerry spent five years in Australia, operating in leading roles in the Dentsu Aegis Network.
She will lead on developing and implementing new areas of digital expertise, including supporting the development of Epiphany’s media and data proposition, working closely with Jaywing’s market leading data science and technology teams.
With senior strategy and planning management experience at the BBC and MediaCom, Rees joins from Amplifi Manchester where he was Digital Planning Director.
He will be responsible for creating truly multi-channel strategies, embracing the agency’s client, audience and market approach and harnessing the wealth of channel expertise already established.
Tom Salmon, Managing Director at Epiphany, a Jaywing agency said: “Gareth and Kerry will be instrumental to our future development and I’m delighted to welcome them to the team.
“This investment in strengthening the talent in our senior team highlights our market-leading position, it will create new opportunities for our business and employees and further build on our already solid reputation as a great place to work. These appointments are a great start to an exciting year ahead.”
