Stuart cuts hours at The Partners

David Stuart is stepping down as creative partner of The Partners next year to take on a part-time role within the WPP Group-owned consultancy. His position will be filled by Gillian Thomas, currently creative consultant at the group.

Four senior design people will report to Thomas: Nick Clark, Janet Neil, Greg Quinton and Nina Jenkins.

Stuart, who co-founded The Partners in 1983, says he has no immediate plans for the future and will work at the consultancy ‘two or three days a month’.
