Luke Brown has been appointed managing director of the events division at Brandon Hill Communications, the award-winning Bristol-based marketing agency.
The move is part of a strategy to reinforce the management structure in the division, which was established in 2007 and has achieved strong year-on-year growth despite the economic downturn.
Luke, pictured, a director at Brandon Hill since the beginning of last year, has been responsible for extending the variety of events managed by the agency across the UK. He has also led the delivery of high-profile events in Brazil, China and India.
Brandon Hill Communications chief executive Ian Muir said: “It’s now time to strengthen the sustainability and independence of our events business. With turnover approaching £1m, it is important that this operation has its own management team and focus.”
This appointment move allows Mr Muir to concentrate on building Brandon Hill Communications’ total marketing offering, which combines public relations, events and digital marketing. The agency is looking to significantly grow its PR operation over the next 24 months.
With offices in Bristol and London, Brandon Hill Communications has a broad client portfolio, including BDO, British Expertise, Sift Media and UK Trade & Investment.
