Both recruits will report to RPM’s head of strategy, John Viccars, and work across the agency’s portfolio of clients, including Heineken, Virgin Holidays, Diageo and Sky.
The new recruits come off the back of RPM’s successful 2015, where it has experienced year-on-year revenue growth and won new business accounts including Johnnie Walker, Berocca (Bayer), Hammer, Ikano Bank and Wahaca.
Viccars said: "Our strategic capability has really developed in recent years as we continue to build our owned behavioural insight tools and global research partnerships. These new hires demonstrate our ability as a team to transcend multiple contexts, as well as providing brand and commercial strategic intellect."
