Huddersfield-based PR and communications agency Wild PR has recruited two new members of staff, taking its headcount to 10. Alongside the new recruits, four existing staff have also been promoted within the business.
Ella Kybaluk joins the team as a PR and social media executive after completing a BA in Fashion Marketing at Leeds Beckett University and having previous experience as a marketing executive for The Hut Group (THG). Ella’s role involves content creation, pitching engaging press material, social media management and supporting campaign outreach.
Also joining the team is University of Birmingham graduate Lydia Fearnley, bringing with her proficient writing skills having undertaken a degree in English Literature.
Lydia’s responsibilities as campaign assistant include supporting her team with digital marketing and social media management and implementing PR campaigns for various clients. Whilst working full time, she is undertaking a Level 3 Digital Marketing apprenticeship to expand her skills and knowledge.
Four existing staff are celebrating promotions. Ellis Noble has been promoted to Wild’s head of client services having joined the business in 2020 as account director and Frankie Lyons has expanded her role from senior digital PR manager to digital PR director.
Mollie Earnshaw was promoted from senior PR executive to junior account manager and junior PR executive Abigail Gosling, who is currently undertaking a Level 4 PR Apprenticeship, has advanced to PR executive.
The agency had an impressive start to 2022 after securing three new client wins within the first quarter, including Manchester-based office design specialist Opus 4, dermatology clinic Aventus Clinic and the award-winning Huddersfield Literature Festival.
Speaking on the recent appointments and promotions, founder and managing director, Katrina Cliffe, said: “The recent client wins have been an amazing start to the year for the agency, and we expect to continue the success for the remainder of the year.
“Not only have the recent appointments helped us to grow as a business and welcome Ella and Lydia to Wild, but we can also celebrate the hard work the team have put in over the last few months. It has allowed us to modernise the structure of the teams within the agency and optimise our way of working to get the best possible results for our clients.”
