MS&L loses its telecoms chief

Clare O'Connor 01-May-08

Manning Selvage & Lee's head of tech and telecoms has left after less than two years in the role.

Justin Hayward, who moved to MS&L from Ogilvy PR, is rumoured to be considering an in-house move.

Tech PROs are calling his departure a blow to MS&L, which counts IT consultancy ThoughtWorks and phone start-up Lebara Mobile among its clients.

'He's known as a real digital guru,' said one. Indeed, Hayward announced his departure from MS&L to industry peers on his Twitter feed.

Agency chief executive Stuart Wilson said he would not be replacing Hayward directly.

'Justin was a junior associate,' he said. 'We've been able to fill his role internally. We'll continue to invest in digital.'
