UK – Research agency Harlow Consulting has expanded its team with two new appointments. 

Founded by Jennifer Brennan and Clare Vokes in 2019, Harrogate-based Harlow Consulting has appointed James McNaught (pictured, right) as an entry-level researcher. 

McNaught previously studied sports science at Leeds Beckett University and worked as a personal trainer. 

Also joining Harlow Consulting is Kirsty Ainslie (pictured, left), who takes up the role of research and operations administrator.

Ainslie’s background is in financial services and the insurance sector, and she previously worked as a compliance adviser for a global organisation.

The new appointments take the company’s headcount to 10. 

Brennan said: “James and Kirsty both aligned well with our culture and values. James has a positive outlook. His enthusiasm, curious mind, and transferable skills make him a natural fit for a research career. His background in sports science also opens up potential new avenues for future project work. Kirsty has an impressive background, and her organisational skills are essential for us as our agency continues to expand.”

The company has also promoted Ben Kehoe from senior researcher to research manager.
