Independent creative agency Town Square has appointed experienced strategist Jeff Malone as its new chief strategy officer.

Malone is an award-winning strategist and has led several strategy departments, launched and built a behavioural science consultancy and worked at drinks giant Lion as a creative strategist where he helped drive new product development.

Alison Ray, general manager at Town Square said: “Jeff brings a wealth of diverse strategic thinking and leadership experience to the agency that will benefit all our existing and new clients. We continue to attract significant brands to the agency wanting the expertise and benefits working with an independent brings, and Jeff will only elevate that further. In addition to being a big brain, he’s also a great person and we are delighted he’s joined the Town Square team.”
