Tess Hulme and Sophie Gibbons Join VCCP Media

After a strong start to 2019 - with organic growth for clients such as easyGroup and the Economist and new business wins for Investec and Viacom brands My5, Vidcon and MTVPlay - VCCP Media has strengthened its team with the hire of two new members to work across the business teams. Tess Hulme joins as business director and Sophie Gibbons as account director.

Tess joins VCCP Media from Havas where she has worked for the last 10 years, beginning her career as an assistant and rising to client partner as a result of her excellence in planning and delivery across clients such as National Express, Kia Motors, Ubisoft Games, Puig Fragrances, Organix and Mitchells & Butlers. In addition to her time at Havas, Tess has worked at Mediacom and MPG, which enabled her to gain experience across all media and hone her client service skills.

Sophie joins with over eight years of experience in media, working at John Ayling and Associates for six years before moving to network agencies at PHD. She has great cross media skills and excellent client management experience.

Of the new hires, Peter Bennett, chief integration officer at VCCP Media, said: “Off the back of the growth we are experiencing, Tess and Sophie are really strong additions to our team. They will give added momentum to the plans the new management have put in place for 2019 and beyond.”
