Never.no, the audience engagement specialist, has announced the appointment of their new Head of Marketing & Communications, Alex Humphries-French.

With 15 years’ experience within the media and entertainment industry, Alex has worked for market-leading LED lighting manufacturer, Rotolight, as their PR & Marketing Lead, managed award-winning campaigns for the likes of Avid, and built personal branding for actors in film & TV.

“I’m excited to join Never.no during a time of innovation across the industry.

In 2018, Alex joined Red Lorry Yellow Lorry as an Account Manager, following two years in Australia freelancing on various digital marketing projects. His reputation for a people-first approach and strong client relationship skills helped him progress to Senior Account Manager, managing PR and digital marketing accounts for clients including Avid and IBM Aspera in EMEA, alongside non-profit diversity initiative, Access:VFX. No stranger to the spotlight, Alex’s experience spans across TV & film, having worked at both Pinewood Studios and Elstree Film Studios, in production, casting and talent management.
