Murray fills Williams Lea role

Williams Lea has confirmed that Darren Murray will join the company in a new role as head of pre-media.

Murray, who was previously with Seven Worldwide as emerging technologies director, will join the London print and facilities management group with effect from 1 March.

This latest exit from Seven follows an exodus last year when four senior members of its London management team left.

The four, who included Myles Peacock, operations director of Seven Worldwide, left to set up a production network facility for TBWA, the global advertising agency (PrintWeek, 9 May 2003).

This latest appointment is part of an on-going recruitment drive by Williams Lea, which earlier this month was awarded a 150m five-year print procurement contract by financial services provider Abbey.
