Brand and comms agency Agent has expanded its team with the hiring of Anna Wharton as head of communications and Rhys Buxton as senior partnerships manager.
Both bring a wealth of experience to the North West agency, which has been delivering its full service offering to clients for over 17 years.
The latest investment in its people “shows a significant stride for Agent in expanding its integrated offering throughout the agency’s well-established studios in both Liverpool and Manchester.”
Wharton joins Agent from her former position as an associate director at tigerbond, where she worked across various high-profile brands, including Specsavers and Biffa. Anna has a proven track record of delivering numerous PR and integrated comms briefs and leading high-performing teams.
Buxton comes to Agent from Kaefer, where he worked as a proposals manager. He brings exceptional skills in project management as well as strategy and the development and delivery of comprehensive bid proposals.
“We are thrilled to welcome Anna and Rhys to the Agent family,” said Paul Corcoran, CEO and founder of Agent. “Their impressive track records and combined expertise will be invaluable in enhancing our client service and offering, supporting us to drive business growth. We are confident that their contribution will fortify our position as a leading creative marketing agency.”
