Venables, Bell Names Jones a Partner

SAN FRANCISCO Venables, Bell & Partners has made planning director Lucy Farey-Jones the fourth partner in the business, the management team said.

Jones became a partner this month at the San Francisco shop, said Paul Venables, agency founder and co-creative director.

Jones, 33, came to Venables in 2001 from BBDO, where she was the head of planning for the West Coast offices in Los Angeles and San Francisco.

A London native, Jones began her career at BMP DDB after earning a degree in English literature from Oxford University.
