People: Agency expands ahead of schedule; New contracts manager at machinery mover

Leon Summers, Mark Fensom and Ruth Morgan

A series of major new business wins have enabled creative agency Warbox to expand its team.

Warbox, which is based in Nottingham’s Lace Market, has appointed Leon Summers as art director and Ruth Morgan as client services manager.

The pair bring considerable experience to the Warbox team, and have worked on a diverse and varied portfolio of client accounts, including organisations such as BT, E.ON, and the University of Leicester.

The appointments, which were part of the agency’s long-term expansion plans, have been accelerated as a result of significant client growth and new business wins, including from telecommunications manufacturer Fujikura, Nottingham’s Victoria Centre, Baldwin Property Group, and emergency services discount scheme Blue Light Card.

Mark Fensom, director of Warbox, said: “Warbox has enjoyed a strong period of growth, cementing our presence in Nottingham and the Midlands and continuing to deliver campaigns for nationally-operating clients, as well as successfully launching UK brands into the US.

“Ruth and Leon bring a wealth of experience to our team, enabling us to support the growth of our strategic brand development team.”

Steve Burlinson

Nottinghamshire based, heavy machinery moving company, Joseph Merritt Group has appointed Steve Burlinson as its new contracts manager.

The appointment is a result of a recent influx in manufacturing activity, with enquiries coming from businesses across the UK requiring a heavy machinery moving service. Recent clients include the likes of ENGEL, DMG Mori, Heidelberg, Pirelli, and Trumpf.

Burlinson said: said “Living locally in Mansfield, I saw this as a great opportunity to join a family run business that operates within a niche market but ultimately delivers a quality service. I see this as a new personal challenge along with being a new chapter in my career.”
