Edwards has been at CCUK for five years after joining from the Evening Standard where he was planning manager in strategic sales. He has also worked at PHD and Tri Direct in planning and buying roles.

Atkinson said: "Promoting Simon to this important role is a demonstration of the confidence we have in him and in our staff generally.

"At a time when many companies are feeling the need to cut their internal resource we are in the fortunate position to be able to invest in ours. I confidently expect to be promoting from within for Simon's position."
