He said: “Although we’ve seen a lot of rapid change and advancement over the past few years, digital marketing is still really in its infancy and so it’s brilliant to be here with a clean sheet of paper looking ahead to what’s possible rather than be encumbered with the legacy code of the past.”
Managing director Alexandra Rose added: “We are really excited about Paul’s appointment. We have been quietly growing the digital aspect of our offering but with Paul’s help we can offer clients a much more strategic and dynamic offering.”
The agency has recently won digital branding projects for online marketing specialists HitSearch and Clatterbridge Cancer Charity, as well as completing a new site for Alder Hey Hospital.
It’s also added a number of new faces to its accounts team, including Danielle Hodgson, Meg Binns, Kirsten Roberts and Rebecca Harwood.
