LEWIS PR Picks Up Three New Accounts
~ Strong Q1 growth puts agency in hiring position ~
21 Apr 2010
Global communications agency LEWIS PR today announced a number of new wins for its Sydney office. The wins include printer vendor Lexmark, Irish government agency Enterprise Ireland and exhibitions company Diversified Exhibitions Australia. The Lexmark win was part of a regional pitch, which now sees LEWIS working with the company in Singapore, Hong Kong and Australia. Both Enterprise Ireland and Diversified Exhibitions Australia were local wins.
“We’re extremely pleased to be working with Lexmark, Enterprise Ireland and Diversified Exhibitions Australia,” said LEWIS Sydney General Manager, Scott Pettet.
“Lexmark in particular is a great brand with a long history of innovation and business success here in Australia and across the region.”
Enterprise Ireland, a government agency that helps Irish companies do business overseas, have a trade mission coming to Australia in May.
“Given LEWIS’ core area of expertise is technology, it’s fantastic to be working with Enterprise Ireland, since tech is the country’s biggest export. There are many successful Irish tech companies here in Australia, many of which fly under the radar. One of our goals is to spotlight some of these companies and the excellent work they’re doing.”
Diversified Exhibitions Australia is a global exhibitions company that stages a diverse range of industry events. In September 2010, they will stage
Security 2010, one of Australia’s leading conferences and exhibitions for the security industry.
“Diversified Exhibitions Australia have brought us on board to help them specifically with Security 2010,” added Pettet. “With so much happening in the security space, this will be a really interesting event with lots of innovative technologies and globally recognised opinion leaders from the security industry.”
With the three new clients now on board, LEWIS is looking to grow its team with the addition of an Account Executive.
“We’re on the hunt now for a switched-on, new media savvy PR Account Executive to join us in the Sydney office. Some tech experience would be an advantage, but not a pre-requisite. At LEWIS we’re most interested in attitude and culture, so applicants must be driven, committed, genuinely interested in media and communications and have a healthy sense of humour!”
