Redwood Consulting grows public affairs team

Redwood Consulting, the communications consultancy which specialises in UK and international real estate and the built environment, has announced three senior hires.

Senior account manager Josh Owens, account manager Natasha Lee and account executive Colm Munday have joined Redwood’s public affairs team.

Owens has previously worked in account manager roles at Remarkable Group’s Manchester offices and at PPS Group, which is now owned by Newgate Communications. His background is in public affairs, community relations and crisis communications in the energy and strategic land sectors.

Lee joins Redwood after a five-year stint at London Communications Agency, while Colm brings experience from in-house communications roles in the charity sector.

Lucy Close, chief executive at Redwood Consulting, said: “We continue to invest in our world-class team and the expansion of our public-affairs arm further cements Redwood’s offer as a fully integrated and rounded communications consultancy.”

In addition to the hires, Sarah Walker has been promoted to senior account manager, Danielle Dove to account manager and Isabel Stoddart to senior account executive. Redwood has also hired two new junior account executives and a new HR manager to help support client teams.
