Sarah Lindgreen, a former director at global communications giant, Brunswick, has strengthened the board at full-service marketing agency, MC2, after twelve months at the company.

Lindgreen joined MC2 last year to set up the company’s financial PR division – the first of its kind outside London. She has helped the agency to achieve considerable success during her role here, bringing on a number of publicly listed clients and adding substantial technical knowledge to the team.

In her capacity as director of the company, she will take responsibility for recruitment, HR, staff development and training, in addition to continuing in her current role as head of financial PR.

Commenting on her appointment, Lindgreen said: “MC2 has a very strong team and attracting and retaining talent has been and will continue to be a key focus for the business. Investment in our people will be central to the future success of MC2 and I am looking forward to developing our personnel strategy to ensure we continue to have one of the best teams in the industry.”

Nathalie Bagnall, managing director of MC2, said: “Given the importance of recruiting, developing and keeping the best people, it was important that this was reflected by a presence on the board – and Sarah’s strong interpersonal and managerial skills mean she is well suited to the role. She has already added significant value to our business, and is a very welcome addition to the board.”
