MARIE CLAIRE MAKES FASHION ADVERTISING APPOINTMENTS
July 31, 2006
Marie Claire, IPC SouthBank's flagship women's glossy, announces today two key appointments in its fashion advertising team. Katie Molloy has been appointed UK fashion & retail manager and Sally Whitworth assumes the role of international fashion manager.
Katie has worked on Marie Claire for five years and has been international fashion manager since 2003. In this role, Katie was instrumental in expanding the international fashion business and is now taking on the challenge of growing the UK fashion and retail sectors.
Katie says: “I'm excited to be working with the dynamic UK fashion and retail areas. With much of the advertising growth in fashion coming from these sectors, I'm looking forward to the challenge of strengthening our relationships.”
Sally Whitworth becomes international fashion manager after performing in an acting role for the last 11 months. Sally has worked on Marie Claire for three years, rising through the ranks from senior sales executive to UK fashion manager.
Sally says: “I'm delighted to be able to focus on the international fashion sector at such an important time. With our newly appointed Italian representation company, Cesanamedia, our goal is to heighten our presence in international markets and to drive the business to new levels of success.”
Nicole Mathers, advertising director, comments: “These are exciting times for the Marie Claire brand and with both Katie and Sally leading our fashion charge, I am confident that we will have the market covered. Client service is paramount and with our heightened 'passion for fashion' and a full and committed team in place, we have the strong foundations needed for success.”
Richard Johnstone, publishing director, adds: “These appointments illustrate how important we value the development of our ongoing relationships within this sector. It also coincides with our soon to be unveiled plans to develop Marie Claire's editorial fashion content.”
