Beaton
will be responsible for marketing, research, sales team support and PR
across Admedia and its products, which include outdoor media in bars,
clubs, shopping centres and motorway services.
She was at
out-of-home media owner Primesight for three years, where she was
responsible for marketing across a number of outdoor formats. She
helped to launch two new products, worked on the committee of the OAA
conference and was involved in industry research.
Prior to

BBC Worldwide, were she was responsible for marketing female magazines
to consumers.
A spokesman from Admedia said Beaton's previous
experience and knowledge of shopping, cinema and health audiences will
offer "new consumer insight" to promote Admedia's core products and
services.
Admedia, headed by managing director Adam Mills,
manages 23,000 washroom panels, 1,350 six-sheets and extensive
experiential opportunities in a range of environments.
Last
Tuesday (21 July), Media Week revealed Admedia won the contracts for
Bay Restaurant Group and Town & City Pub Company, which operate the
Slug and Lettuce, Yates's and Hogs Head chains.
