People Moves

It’s been a busy summer!  We wanted to keep you up to date on changes here at HMA.

Harvey McKinnon Associates is pleased to announce the promotion of Reneé Eaton and Amy Wilkinson to the position of Senior Account Managers, and Eva Martinak to Head of Production.

Reneé Eaton made the move to non-profits after holding positions in marketing, client relations and editorial production in publishing and banking.  She joined HMA in January 2004, and completed her certificate in Fundraising Management in 2007.

Amy Wilkinson joined HMA in 2006 as Account Manager in our Vancouver office, before moving to Toronto in January 2007 to establish our HMA office there.

In their new positions, both Renée and Amy will figure more prominently in providing strategic direction and analysis for clients, as well as continuing the fantastic management of their clients’ direct response programs.

Eva Martinak has been promoted to Head of Production.  Eva joined HMA in October 2005, with experience in direct mail ranging from Vancouver to Europe.  In Spring 2007, she took over the management of all of HMA’s print and production.  Eva has built her team up to four talented production gurus, who skillfully guide our clients’ mailings from design through print and mailing.
