With the agreement, Epiphany, which was acquired by Jaywing in March for £18m, will be responsible for running the book dispenser’s integrated search engine optimisation, pay-per-click and programmatic advertising strategies.

Emma Grinter, senior online marketing manager at Waterstones, said: “We’ve been working with Epiphany since 2011. Online channels are a vital part of our business and I’m pleased that Epiphany is able to integrate our SEO strategy with programmatic advertising and display, building on our successful relationship in search.”

This comes after Epiphany made a host of appointments bringing its employee tally up to 150. Recently joining was Joe Robinson as senior designer, Yaroslav Brooke as PPC analyst, Lauren Saffer as display analyst and John Jackson who will take up the role senior search strategist.
