Motorola’s European marketing director Simon Thompson has joined Lastminute.com as chief marketing officer. A Motorola spokesperson, speaking to mad.co.uk, said: “Thompson, who has held the post of European marketing director at Motorola for the past year, has resigned from Motorola to take on a new post. [Neil] Stuart, currently marketing lead for the EMEA & India region, will be taking over Thompson’s responsibilities in Europe from the beginning of April.”
Thompson, who was responsible for our line of the day during our Online Publishers’ Association coverage from London this month, had spearheaded an imminent campaign for Motorola’s Rizr launch and, previously, as Honda marketing director, worked on the “impossible dream” campaign.
