The agency will also oversee the 130-year-old British brand’s public affairs activity, as well as offering senior communications advice and press office support in the UK.
Clotilde Gros (pictured above) and Simon Gentry, both Newgate partners, will lead the account.
Gros, who has advised clients across a range of corporate and financial comms issues for over 10 years, will manage the financial and corporate side of the account, while Gentry will apply his 27 years’ industry experience in handling the brief’s public affairs element.
With this win, Newgate has expanded its client base, which includes Canyon Bridge Capital Partners and Atalaya Mining.
