There is a fantastic opportunity to bring these transformative operating models to an even wider array of brands – driving efficiencies while saving time and money."

Echoing Binks' enthusiasm, Simon Ward, CEO of Inspired Thinking Group, noted, "Bringing Roger on board strengthens our global ambitions, cementing our already well-established presence in the key UK and European markets. His experience in both the business growth and creative spaces makes him an invaluable addition to the team.
