DVJ Insights continues to strengthen the UK Team with the appointment of Client Consultant, Lucy Burnham

London, 29 January 2026 - DVJ Insights is delighted to announce that Lucy Burnham has joined the company as the latest Client Consultant in the UK, as of 1 January 2026. Lucy brings with her more than 20 years of market research agency experience across brand, communications and strategic consultancy.

Lucy started her career at Kantar Worldpanel, where she spent her first decade working with shopper data and consumer behaviour insights. She then moved into brand and communications research at Millward Brown, later joining Hall & Partners, where she continued to build long-term client partnerships and strategic expertise. Over the past ten years, Lucy has held progressively senior roles from Senior Account Director to, most recently, a UK Board Director, where she was responsible for strategic and commercial leadership across a multi-division insight business.

After a decade in management and board-level roles, Lucy decided the time was right to return to what she enjoys most: working closely with clients.

“What attracted me to DVJ Insights is its long-standing reputation in brand and communications research, combined with the quality of its trusted client partnerships,” says Lucy Burnham. “After many years in senior management roles, I’m excited to be back in a position where I can work directly with clients again, helping them translate insights into clear decisions and growth opportunities.”

In her role as Client Consultant, Lucy will support UK-based and international clients with strategic brand and communication challenges, drawing on her extensive agency and consultancy background.

“Lucy’s experience across the breadth of market research, combined with her strategic leadership background, makes her a valuable addition to our UK team,” says Jemma Toynebee-Smith, Managing Consultant of the UK at DVJ Insights. “Her decision to move back into a client-facing role fits perfectly with our belief that strong, trusted partnerships are built with the right combination of expert consultants and market-leading solutions. Lucy’s expertise in communications makes her an exciting addition to our market.”

With Lucy’s appointment, DVJ Insights continues to strengthen its UK presence and its ability to support brands with high-quality, actionable insights that drive growth.
