Manchester-based integrated agency Access has added another string to its bow with the appointment of PR and social media manager Nyree Hughes, 30.
Nyree, who brings over eight years’ corporate communications and third sector consultancy experience to the role, will be responsible for PR and social media campaigns for existing B2B and public sector client accounts while supporting Access’ new business drive to expand its PR offering.
Managing communications programmes for a number of high-profile UK organisations; she has specialist knowledge of the property and not-for-profit sectors and has worked on a number of fully integrated campaigns for some of the UK’s top corporations.
A graduate in French from Aberystwyth University, Nyree’s linguistic skills have provided her with the opportunity to work with international organisations, including Paris- based art publishing house Nouvelles Images. After cutting her teeth in B2B consultancies, she went on to work with one of the UK’s top house builders, Bellway Homes and children’s charity Barnardo’s.
Simon Landi, Managing Director of Access, said: “Nyree’s appointment is an important step for the agency. We have made great strides in developing our PR and social media campaigning capabilities. This new role is instrumental in helping us to support new and existing clients’ PR needs and already she is proving to be a key addition to the team, working on a new project with the Welsh Government.”
