Jennifer Custer has been named director of the London office of literary scouting firm Maria B. Campbell Associates, effective April 8.

Heath literary agents, a role she held for over a decade. She can be reached at JCuster@mbcbook.com.

"When we opened our U.K. office over ten years ago, we were following our belief that ‘scouting without borders’ would be the way of the future. We were the first scouting company to have a foothold in both New York and London. Now, ten years later, the London office is seven people strong and represents major international publishers, a global entertainment company, and a score of prestigious independent producers," said Maria B. Campbell Associates president Agnes Ahlander Turner. "Given her extensive experience and our shared values, Jenn is uniquely positioned to lead the U. K. office as we embark on a new chapter of growth. Intelligence, integrity, camaraderie, and wit are core values in our company, and I’m extremely excited to partner with her to continue to deliver excellence to our clients and expand our international reach.”
