Bristol-based advertising agency Stuff has made two new appointments to its client service team. Lauren Tregaskes and Clare Szymanski join to support Stuff with its growing client base and business development activities.
Lauren, pictured, joins as an account manager, having previously worked at Bray Leino, where she focused on a number of its key accounts. Her experience in the advertising industry has taught her the importance of integrating effective marketing material into strong communication strategies while her degree in International Business at UWE gives her a broader approach to the business world.
Lauren said: “I’m now fortunate and thrilled to work with a close knit talented creative team and technical experts developing and delivering creative strategies and brilliant work on a daily basis. My role at Stuff is client facing, but I love helping to generate ideas and working with creatives to deliver great results for our clients.”
Account director Clare previously worked at JWT, one of London’s leading advertising agencies, and her additional digital design agency background will complement the skills of the team. With a CIM Professional Diploma in Marketing and her Psychology degree, Clare’s business development approach is to really understand, engage and meet the needs of Stuff’s clients and their audiences.
Clare, pictured, said: “I am really excited about joining the team at Stuff, their creative passion is infectious and their dedication is second to none. The agency has a fantastic balance between creativity and client service, and I’m really looking forward to using my experience and skills to get to grips with the client briefs.”
Stuff managing director Jonnie Galvin-Wright added: “We are extremely pleased to welcome Lauren and Clare to our team. They have the right expertise to enhance our creative passion and their appointments will strengthen our dedicated client service team.
“It’s been a great year for the agency, we have now been a recommended agency with RAR [the Recommended Agency Register] for four years running and we felt it important to expand our fantastic team of people with yet more great talent.”
Stuff works with blue-chip clients such as Trunki, National Grid, Prince’s Trust, UWE and JBP PR on a range of advertising across print, outdoor, TV and digital.
