Manchester-based PR agency Intelligent Conversation has opened a London office.
The agency, which is in its 10th year, has opened an office at the Bloomsbury building in Holborn, which will be used to grow its national and international client portfolio.
Managing director Kate Jones said: “We are continuing to invest in our talented team and our proposition, with exciting plans for the coming year including our new base in London.
“While Manchester will remain our HQ, we have a growing list of London and internationally-based clients and believe it’s time to take the next step and create new opportunities for growth. Reaching 10 years in business is a significant milestone, but we are not standing still.”
The agency now has 16 staff, with the latest hire being senior consultant Richard Bond, a former director of strategy at Manchester firm SKV Communications. Measurement specialist Steph Bridgeman has also been appointed as a new associate.
Agency founder and chief executive Libby Howard said: “Being able to demonstrate the business impact of our work is an important competitive advantage and it helps our clients to retain and grow their communications budgets.”
