IPB strengthens its team in the North East

Our North East office has welcomed a new recruit as we continue to build on our impressive record of delivering PR and consultation services in the region.

The office at Houghton-le-Spring is now staffed by Senior Consultant Craig Downs, who joins IPB from Four Housing Group, where he worked as marketing and PR manager. He had previously headed up the communications departments of Wear Valley District Council and the subsidiary of a national retailer.

He will work closely with clients and partners in the North East, supporting the work of IPB PR, IPB Consult and IPB Plus across many projects.

Craig said: "I am delighted to be joining IPB and hope that my experience and knowledge of providing PR, marketing and communications within the public sector will add value to the services we provide to our existing and new clients across the region.

"Having previously worked with IPB on various projects, I have always been very impressed with their professional and creative approach to PR and communications and I now have the opportunity to work as part of that team."
