Clare Hutchings and Richard Stanton join MEC Interaction.

MEC Interaction, MEC's specialist digital, search and direct response business, confirms two new appointments; Clare Hutchings, who takes up the position of Business Director, and Richard Stanton, who has been appointed as Digital Account Director.

Clare has a wealth of digital experience, both agency and client side. She joins from Harvest Digital where she was Media Account Director on the Tesco Personal Finance and Plan UK accounts and has the necessary experience to tackle MBNA and MEC's range of other clients.

Richard joins from Universal McCann where he worked with clients such as Microsoft, Intel, Telegraph, Bacardi Martini and NME. Richard's extensive contributions to such high profile consumer accounts will prove beneficial to his clients at MEC, including Sony Ericsson, Morrisons, Colgate and Visa.

Jason Dormieux, Managing Partner, MEC Interaction said: "The appointment of both Clare and Richard are two very significant developments for MEC Interaction. Their combined experience reads like a who's who of big name clients, and for this reason it's quite clear that they will both fit in effortlessly at MEC. I'm very much looking forward to welcoming them both on board."
