Field, who started working for epa five years ago, has over fifteen years’ experience of working in the news photo industry, both in London and in Frankfurt. Throughout that time she gained invaluable insight and knowledge of the international news photo business and achieved success in her last position as Regional Sales Director UK and North America. Tiffinni Field will assume the position of Director International Sales with immediate effect.

“Tiffinni’s vast experience and proximity to the markets will enhance our international sales operations”, said Schierenbeck. “She will report directly to me”.

Tiffinni Field succeeds Piotr Ambroziak, who was appointed COO of epa’s shareholder agency PAP in Poland.

Schierenbeck thanked Ambroziak for his contribution since 2012.
