IPC appoints new Nuts & Loaded ad manager

IPC Ignite has appointed Gareth Williams to the role of ad manager of its men’s lifestyles titles, Nuts and Loaded.

Williams, who joined the publishing group in October 2007 from Associated Newspapers, will step up from his former senior sales role and report directly to Ignite’s trading director, Andrew Goldsmith.

He will be responsible for the display ad performance of both men’s titles, along with driving cross-platform opportunities in the wider Ignite management team.

Williams said: “I’m delighted to be given the opportunity to ad manage both Nuts and Loaded. They are two amazing and iconic brands which continue to deliver excellent results in what is a really challenging market place.”

Goldsmith added: “Gareth has been a major asset to Ignite since he joined us a little over a year ago. He has a proven track record in sales and is very well respected by both his colleagues and his clients.

“He will continue to bring real enthusiasm, dedication and new ideas to the role into 2009 and beyond.”

Williams will start his new role immediately.
