Board director and Diamond Monkey Christine Jewell has been promoted to joint managing director, sharing the role with Cheeky Monkey Annabel Dunstan in a move that formalises the structure that has been in place for the last quarter of 2009.

Greg Tulett joins the Operations Board from Lewis PR in the newly created role of Finance Director and Bill Jones, co-founder of Lexis PR has been appointed as a non-executive director to help guide the future strategic growth of the company.

Ali Gee, Wise Monkey and head of consultancy departs the Jungle to take up a new role at Edelman, heading up the agency's new planning department.

Angie Moxham, Chief Monkey said:

“As an agency, 3 Monkeys has enjoyed a tremendous six years which has seen us grow from my attic at home to offices in London and Oxford with almost fifty staff. As we continue to attract great clients and the brightest and best talent to the Jungle our structure must also evolve. In order to consolidate our current business and continue sensible growth over the coming years we needed a restructure of the Board. The new structure will prepare us for an ambitious 2010.”
