Eight months after quitting Tullo Marshall Warren, co-founder Chris Warren has resurfaced in the agency world as the first non-executive director of Bristol-based direct agency Indicia.
Warren has taken up the role to help the agency – formed by the merger of agency Entire and data firm Marketing Databasics – continue its double-digit growth as well as promote its proposition and help identify and integrate potential acquisitions.
Indicia’s clients include Nissan, Heineken, Tourism Ireland, Asos and Shop Direct, for which it won the DMA Grand Prix last year.
Warren said: “Building a highly impressive blue-chip client base in such a short space of time and winning the DMA Grand Prix award in late 2011 – the first agency outside London to do so – demonstrates that Indicia is a business going places.”
Warren co-founded TMW – with Richard Marshall and Paul Tullo – 25 years ago and was the first of the founders to leave following a buyout from Creston. At the time of his departure he was also head of parent group Creston’s communications division, which included EMO and The Real Adventure.
Indicia managing director and chairman Ian Stockley said: “We are delighted that Chris has decided to join Indicia, bringing with him his extensive knowledge, experience and connections from the marketing services industry at a time when it will be invaluable to help continue our strong momentum.”
