Newgate Communications has recruited Ian Morris to its Manchester office, to “strengthen its regional network.”
Morris joins from Citigate Dewe Rogerson, where he worked for almost 12 years, initially in London, before establishing the agency’s Manchester office in 2013.
“I’ve been really impressed with Newgate’s depth and breadth of expertise helping organisations communicate effectively with stakeholders from businesses to consumers, local communities, investors, governmental bodies or media,” he said.
“The agency has a clear strategy and huge growth potential and I’m really looking forward to helping the team achieve that.”
As partner, he’ll report to Newgate CEO, Emma Kane and work alongside fellow partner, Zoe Ensor.
“Our Manchester office is a cornerstone of our UK network and this appointment adds more senior-level expertise to our offering,” explained Kane.
“We’re focused on growing our capability across our full suite of strategic communications services throughout our network, and we’re delighted to have Ian on board to help us deliver for clients locally, nationally and internationally.”
Newgate’s Manchester office is based in the Northern Quarter.
