LONDON - Customer publishing company Summersault Communications has named Gail Franks as managing director.

Franks was previously joint managing director of Wildfire Communications, which she joined after she sold the company she founded, Franx Publishing, to E3 Media/Wildfire.

Wildfire worked on publishing and online media, and created websites for bodies including BBC Comedy Soup and AdoptionUK.com.

At Summersault, she takes over from Brian Jeavons, who has stepped down as managing director after 10 years. Last year, he negotiated the sale of Summersault to Motivcomm, and the company said he was leaving to take a "well earned break and looking forward to having the time to pursue some of his many other interests".

Summersault's clients include Birmingham Midshires, McDonald's and Central Trains.
