Freshfield makes two promotions and creates four new roles

Freshfield has revealed a double promotion and the creation of four new roles, including a new appointment.

The agency has promoted Samantha Booth to PR & communications manager and Alice Davies to digital marketing manager.

It has also created several new roles for members of its existing team. Ben Hewes takes on the title of head of video – combining it with his PR manager role. Samit Nayi has been named head of design and Mark Brennan becomes head of digital and senior marketing manager.

In addition, Freshfield has appointed Clare Horton as business operations manager. Clare will work alongside the management team to oversee people development, finance, facilities management and compliance.

Simon Turner, managing director of Freshfield, said: “These promotions are all about allowing our people to flourish as marketing professionals and giving us a stronger infrastructure to support our clients.

“The marketing world has changed beyond recognition but we believe we are perfectly placed to give clients access to the full marketing tool-kit from advisory and PR to design, digital and video.

“Our recruitment of an experienced business operations manager in Clare will only strengthen us, particularly when it comes to developing our team. We take our role as an employer very seriously and it’s great to see our people delighting clients and growing professionally and personally.”

Based in Preston’s Winckley Square, Freshfield has a 20-strong team offering public relations, marketing advisory, design, digital and video services.
