| Bite Communications Appoints David Hargreaves As General Manager, North America |
Hargreaves brings over 18 years of experience working in the communications industry and has been with Bite Communications since late 2005, following the acquisition of his company Credo Communications. Since joining Bite, Hargreaves has been instrumental in driving the significant growth and innovation that has become Bite’s trademark in the UK market. Much of the growth can be attributed to Hargreaves’ role leading the region’s business development activities, highlighted by key strategic wins with a number of industry-leading brands including Facebook and Getty Images. As General Manager, North America, Hargreaves will be responsible for providing strategic counsel across all client service teams as well as further developing Bite’s service offering with the support of the existing senior management team. Of particular focus will be continuing to build out campaigns centered on Bite’s audience-centric, channel-neutral communications platforms. “David’s broad range of experience working with clients such as Apple, Sage and Sun, as well as his strong track record in developing award-winning communications campaigns, made him the obvious choice to head up our North America-based operations,” said Clive Armitage, CEO, Bite Communications. “It’s an exciting time to bring David to this market. Today, clients rightly demand more than just competitive communications strategies; they require creative, proactive campaigns that use an ever growing number of communications channels to effectively target increasingly fragmented audiences. This is a passion for David and we’re looking forward to having him apply his innovative thinking to help further strengthen our offering here in North America.” “Bite has an impressive existing client base in North America and I’m looking forward to working with those clients and helping them navigate the ever-changing global communications landscape,” said David Hargreaves, General Manager, North America, Bite Communications. “I have already seen incredible talent at Bite in this market and I’m looking forward to working with these teams to continue to provide the highest level of strategic counsel and client service.” |
