Digital agency AnalogFolk hired Ruth Sreenan in the newly-created position of executive vice president, U.S. operations.
Based out of New York, Sreenan will be tasked with implementing practices to optimize the agency’s effectiveness and financial wellbeing, while reporting directly to AnalogFolk founder and managing director Kunal Muzumdar.
“Adding Ruth to our team is incredibly exciting. Her experience is hugely valuable to an agency our size,” Muzumdar said in a statement. “She will help reinforce our foundation from an operational standpoint so that how we make is as innovative as what we make.”
“I’m thrilled to be starting a new chapter at AnalogFolk. What drew me here was that they’re a relatively young independent global agency with tremendous momentum,” Sreenan added. “This freedom allows for innovative thinking and creativity, and my role is to ensure that they can deliver in the most effective and efficient way; not just for our clients but for our employees too.”
Sreenan joins AnalogFolk following a period as a freelance consultant COO.
