Starting his career at the broadcaster in 1997, Barnett went on to work as part of its External Trading team, where major projects included Nike's 'Write the Future' ad in the 2010 World Cup and the two minute Hovis 'Go on Lad' campaign in 2008.

This is a really exciting time for Duke & Earl as we expand our team and continue to build on our talents and capabilities. Adam brings to the company a great knowledge of the industry and his list of credentials pays homage to his ability as a great deal maker."
Duke & Earl's range of expertise spans platforms, from digital marketing campaigns to branded content and TV commercial production. With the company so passionate about fusing broadcast and digital skill-sets, Adam will play a key role in taking Duke & Earl's integrated message out to brands and channels.
Adam Barnett, Head of Business Development, Duke & Earl, added: "Having been at ITV for literally half of my life, it will always be a part of me. The company gave me a superb platform from which to learn and grow and I'm hugely grateful. I'm relishing the exciting new opportunity of heading up new business at Duke & Earl after first meeting the company back in 2006. They've helped me on many projects and have produced lots of fantastic creative work. I look forward to helping them grow and being a part of their future."
With Adam's appointment Duke & Earl's previous Head of Business Development, Marc Heal, becomes Business Development Director.
Now in its fourth year, Duke & Earl is an independent full service, creative advertising agency with clients including GeoSweep.com, ITV, Nike, T Mobile, Magners and Sky.
