Posted on April 15, 2012

Despite the economy, one company is doing great and reportedly hiring for marketing jobs in Connecticut and other locations where its offices are located.

Vanguard Direct, a provider of communications solutions, announced that it is bringing in four new mobile- and tablet-oriented associates.

The new team includes Dana Farbo, Thomas Miller, Nomi Kaplan, and Ken Palen — all formerly of Imano Inc.

In his new role as Director of New Media, Dana Farbo, a leader and innovator in web campaigns, dynamic content delivery, and digital publishing, brings his expertise in mobile and a strong marketing background to the company’s proven client service model.

Thomas Miller, as Creative Director, New Media, will combine his background in magazine design and publishing with in-depth knowledge of custom mobile development solutions for smartphones and tablets, helping the company’s design team bridge the gap between conventional print and the age of the iPad.

As a Creative Project Manager, Nomi Kaplan will bring freshness and new insights to day-to-day client communication, and will help to bring mobile and web solutions to the table alongside traditional technologies. And Ken Palen, coming in as Senior Account Executive, New Media, is engaged in the cutting edge world of iPhone, iPad, and Android app design and development, helping customers enhance their communications, training and customer engagement efforts.

“This talent set clearly supports our new brand positioning,” said Robert O’Connell, Vanguard Direct President, “and not only helps Vanguard grow in the digital and mobile space, but will allow us to introduce state-of-the-art digital and mobile projects in order to grow and support current and prospective clients.”

Adds Director of Technology Services Preeti Sharma, “Bringing this team into the fold will further strengthen our ability to make powerful and compelling advances with mobile/tablet and creative services.”
