Data science and marketing specialist Jaywing PLC (LON:JWNG) has appointed Dr Catherine Kelly as a Senior Consultant.
Kelly has a PhD in maths and has worked in marketing and data science throughout her career. She also has a strong retail background, having held the role of Senior Manger within the Data Science team at Asda.
Her appointment comes at a time of ongoing growth, following Jaywing’s launch of Jaywing Intelligence in May and acquisition of Bloom last year. The Sheffield-headquartered agency’s team of data scientists now stands at more than 70.
MD Ben O’Brien said: “We are delighted to welcome Catherine to our growing team of talented data scientists. Jaywing has already set the standard in data science in our industry and we are excited about the next stage in our ambitious strategy.
“As the sophistication of Artificial Intelligence and machine learning, and the availability of data grows, it’s critical that brands are supported by people with the right data skills. This combination of new technology and data expertise will be key to how the marketing landscape evolves over the next five years.”
