Midlands PR and digital agency WPR  has expanded its team, increasing its head count to 5o.

Home grown talent has been recruited with four graduate account executives from Midlands-based universities. Hannah Mason, Becky Jukes, Francesca Gallone and Chloe Stewart are supporting an integrated team, working across B2B, digital and consumer accounts.

Liz Fisher has joined the agency from Prova PR as a senior account executive to handle content creation and media relations for clients, including APC Overnight, Bosch Commercial and Industrial and Worcester, Bosch Group.

WPR has also welcomed four digital specialists; Alex Mansell has joined from WAA and Danielle Millward from Grayling, both as social media managers. The team is now supported by Laura Stainton as graduate social media executive and Lucy Morphew as digital marketing executive.

Managing director Jane Ainsworth (pictured above with the team) said, “We are huge advocates of nurturing talent from within the business and are committed to graduate level recruitment wherever possible, not least because it ensures clear progression opportunities for our established team”.
