Six Degrees has revealed Richard Simpson (pictured above) as its Managing Director.

Simpson steps up to the role having previously been an Associate Director at the agency, leading the technology team for the past four years. He aims to bring new focus to the business, as well as build further momentum on its growth with a number of additional revenue initiatives planned for this year.

Simpson takes over from Jennifer Janson who has led the agency since 2005. She now moves across into a Chairman role and will focus more of her time on other projects, including a launching curation platform for business books called mybusinessbookclub.com.
