Burdett’s 8 year career with The Futures Company has involved leading consulting teams in both the UK and the US. The move represents a return to the US for Lloyd, who previously spent two years in New York leading the Global Insight and Futures Consulting team. He brings a breadth and depth of global experience to The Futures Company’s North American business having worked with clients across the world, including South America, North America, Asia, the Middle East, and Western and Eastern Europe. He previously led The Futures Company’s Global Trends and Futures practice, including the development of Global MONITOR, The Futures Company’s perspective on consumer attitudes and trends across the globe. Burdett’s move to the US is part of The Futures Company’s expansion in North America announced earlier this year, and further strengthens the company’s increasingly global perspective as well as the range of consulting methodologies they can bring to their clients. Lloyd has developed many of the proprietary tools, techniques and processes that The Futures Company uses to help clients unlock their future, integrating trends insight with quantitative and qualitative research and existing sector, category and brand insight. These “unlocking methodologies” Says Burdett “It’s great to be back here after a couple of years away. These are exciting times for our business and I am really looking forward to being at the forefront of the next generation of The Futures Company’s consulting business here in North America, demonstrating the full range of unlocking methodologies we have at our disposal to help our clients unlock the future growth of their business.” As part of this role based out of The Futures Company’s New York office, Lloyd will continue to feed into the Global MONITOR insights service, as well as manage and integrate a team of client-facing consultants in locations across North America.
