Marketing Manager Gains Business Accolade

Kelly Herrick, Marketing Manager for Abacus Lighting has been named as one of Midland Business Insider’s 42 Under 42.

Nottingham: March 2010 - The award identifies the brightest and best of the regions up and coming business talent.

From her background in brand consultancy and design management Kelly entered construction, eventually being snapped up by Abacus to head up the new marketing department.

“The fact that I work in a forward thinking business, which is growing through new product development, customer service and international expansion, has given me some incredible opportunities. It’s great to be recognised outside the company, the seal of approval from the wider business community really means a lot to me. Following on from Abacus winning East Midlands Business of the Year everything is pointing to a great 2010. And to be honest, I’m pretty happy about coming under the age limit too!”
