Talon promotes Willbourn and Horton

Out-of-home specialist Talon has announced the creation of two new senior roles, overseeing the client- and agency-facing business.

Luke Willbourn and Amy Horton have both been promoted to chief client officer, responsible for two strands of Talon’s business.

Willbourn will manage all the Omnicom agency business, while Horton takes charge of agencies and clients across Havas, Goodstuff and the independent agencies. Both will report into managing director James Copley.

Willbourn, who has been promoted from his current group business director role managing the OMD UK and PHD businesses, has been at Talon for over four years and has more than 16 years’ experience in the OOH sector, including roles at Kinetic, Posterscope and CBS Outdoor (now Exterion Media).[advert position=”left”]

Meanwhile, Horton joined Talon in 2017, having previously worked at Kinetic, CBS Outdoor, EMAP, MediaVest and the Radio Advertising Bureau. She is promoted from her position as head of business development.

“I am delighted to promote Amy and Luke to chief client officers reflecting the significant contributions both have made towards driving our success to date,” said Copley.

“The people at Talon are our best asset and as we continue to grow so does our investment in our talent.”
