Ciarán Coyle promoted to ceo at US brand specialist LMCA

New York-based LMCA has announced a shift in its top management, as the brand agency experiences rapid growth and expands further internationally.

Ciarán Coyle – who joined the company in April 2021 as president and coo – has been promoted to the role of ceo. He will also become a principal of the company and join the LMCA Board.

In the new role, Ciarán will oversee all aspects of the operations of the business, globally. Allan Feldman, founder and formerly ceo, will become executive chairman, working closely with Ciarán on the agency strategy and key partnerships.

“Ciarán has brought a sharp business focus and discipline to LMCA over this past year and established an incredibly strong foundation for the agency’s continued international growth as a leader in strategic brand extension licensing,” commented Allan. “The decision of the LMCA board to elevate Ciarán to the position of ceo reflects the confidence we have in his ability to realise LMCA’s full potential and add significant value to our clients.”

Ciarán added: “I’ve greatly enjoyed working with our super clients, partners, and the wonderful LMCA team over the past year and am very excited for what lies ahead. I’m truly honoured by this opportunity to take on the ceo responsibilities and look forward to working with all our LMCA stakeholders to deliver continued success.”
