As announced to members last month, the new aimm Board has decided to change the executive structure to ensure that the diverse needs and the concerns of all of the aimm membership are understood and accurately reflected.
Rory Maguire, after 5 years at the helm of aimm will be stepping back at the end of June to focus on his consultancy business, handing the baton to General Manager Joanna Cox who starts in August.
AIME is delighted to announce the arrival of Julia Freeman as Head of Business Development and Communications.
Julia has extensive experience in the direct marketing and direct response advertising fields and spent much of her career in London working at key agencies such as Proximity and Rapier.
During her career Julia has worked across most industry sectors including charities.
Julia’s role with AIME will be to develop AIME’s communication strategies both to members and to the external world where AIME and its member services are little known. She will increase PR opportunities for AIME and its members and work with the five mobile operator members on the productisation and merchant awareness of Charge to Mobile.
Julia will also look at market development opportunities with the intention to increase membership and deliver to existing members improvements in their operating environments.
Julia met some of you at the networking event last week and looks forward to meeting other members very soon.
