Marchex, Inc. (NASDAQ:MCHX) (NASDAQ:MCHXP) today announced that Anne
Devereux has joined its Board of Directors, effective October 19th.
Devereux replaces Rick Thompson, who has stepped down from the Board to
devote more time to his position as a Vice President at Microsoft
Corporation.
“While the evolution of my responsibilities at
Microsoft has led to this change, I have enjoyed serving on the Marchex
Board and will continue to offer my advice and assistance to Russ and
the executive management team at Marchex,”
said Thompson.
“Rick has been an important contributor to
Marchex over the past four years, and we very much appreciate what he
has done for us,” said Russell C. Horowitz,
Marchex Chairman and CEO. “At the same time,
we are very pleased to add someone of Anne’s
background and capabilities to our Board of Directors, given her
advertising industry knowledge and operational experience.”
Devereux has more than 20 years of experience in marketing and
advertising. Devereux currently serves as CEO of TBWAWorldHealth
and also CEO of LLNS, both of which are divisions of Omnicom Group Inc.
(NYSE:OMC). TBWAWorldHealth is one of the
largest global marketing services networks dedicated to healthcare and
lifestyle brands; LLNS is a leading healthcare communications agency.
Prior to these roles, Devereux was the Chief Integration Officer as well
as Managing Director of all health-related assignments within BBDO New
York, representing clients such as GE, Pepsi, Fed-Ex, Campbell’s,
Gillette, Pfizer, Glaxo SmithKline and Schering-Plough. Before joining
BBDO, Devereux was President and Founder of Consumer Healthworks, one of
the first agencies to specialize in direct-to-consumer advertising for
healthcare brands.
“In a relatively short period of time, Marchex
has built a leading search and media company that connects millions of
consumers to thousands of advertisers. I am very excited to be involved
with Marchex, and I look forward to providing guidance and support
wherever I can,” said Devereux.
