"We will grow our Birmingham team to meet the needs that just aren't being answered currently.
"Neil's track record makes him the ideal person to succeed where others have failed; he's as happy as rhubarb in custard to be at the Factory alongside the creative community we serve".
Ad Lib has six consultants and two administrators in offices in Queen Square, central Bristol, and the Custard Factory, Birmingham.
It has been serving the creative community since 2001.
All of its consultants have worked in a creative marketing business and are also trained recruiters.
