Scottish Sea Farms names Karyn Lumsden as new Head of Communications and Marketing following Lesley Rice’s departure.
Scottish Sea Farms has appointed Karyn Lumsden as its new Head of Communications and Marketing, following the departure of Lesley Rice, who held the role for four years before stepping down in January 2025.
Rice, who joined Scottish Sea Farms in 2018 as Communications & Marketing Manager, was instrumental in shaping the company’s brand and external messaging during a period of rapid industry change and increasing regulatory scrutiny.
Scottish Sea Farms, a major producer of premium Scottish salmon, operates across Scotland’s west coast, Orkney, and Shetland, supplying markets worldwide. Lumsden’s appointment comes as the company continues to navigate shifting regulatory landscapes, sustainability expectations, and evolving consumer demand, making strategic communication more critical than ever.
