Simon returns to boost leadership team

Public relations and communications specialist Nielsen McAllister has strengthened its leadership team with a familiar face.

Simon Kinnear started his PR career at the Derby firm, working as account executive, and then account manager, between 2002 and 2011.

He has now re-joined the company as account director, helping fellow directors Bob Bushby and Simon Wildash with recent client wins and driving new business.

He will also explore new opportunities with existing clients in PR, social media, SEO, brand strategy and thought leadership.

Simon said: “It’s great to be back. Nielsen McAllister is bigger and better than it was a decade ago – and hopefully, so am I.

“I can’t wait to reconnect with old customers, meet new ones and build upon the great work that Bob, Simon and the team are already doing.”

Bob said: “I first employed Simon nearly 20 years ago, and I’m proud of what he has achieved, both within and outside of Nielsen McAllister.

“His expert knowledge of B2B communications has grown deeper over the past decade and I’m delighted to welcome him back.”
