Jane Clemetson brings a wealth of new experience to Inksters which will be of immense benefit to Scottish clients.”

In response, Ms Clemetson remarked, “I am delighted to be joining Inksters and look forward to working closely with clients in Scotland and developing Inksters’ client base south of the Border.”
