Leicestershire-based marketing communications agency, The
Phoenix Partners, has appointed two new executives as part of an
ambitious five-year programme of growth.
The agency is on target to comfortably achieve its 2011
projections and has brought in Jennifer Manning-Ohren as marketing
communications executive, and Gita Bhatt as executive assistant to
support the existing team both internally and help to deliver
projects on behalf of new clients.
Jennifer joins the agency having previously worked in marketing
and communications on behalf of regional business advisers Cooper
Parry in Nottingham, while Gita worked in Operations at Premier

Defined as an experiential marketing agency and specialists in
live events, The Phoenix Partners has recently returned from Berlin
having co-ordinated a weekend of luxury and reward for over 330 of
Canon Europe's top sales people and VIPs. The weekend is just one

Sequel, Carl Zeiss Vision, Canon Europe and Castrol, while closer
to home the agency also works with MAE Limited, Flowers Associates,
Norman & Underwood, Lloyds Employment Law and East Midlands
RFCA.
Jennifer will be the central point of contact for public
relations and marketing activities within the agency. In her spare
time Jennifer enjoys swimming, cycling and running and takes part
in triathlons, half marathons and marathons, raising thousands of
pounds for charity in the process. Her most recent challenge was
completing the Outlaw Triathlon comprising a 2.4mile swim in the
National Water Sports Centre Regatta Lakes, near Nottingham, a 112
mile bike ride and a 26.2 mile run - all within a time limit of 17
hours.
Commenting on her new role Jennifer said, "I am delighted to
have joined a truly exciting and forward-thinking business and am
looking forward to the creative experience along the way. The
Phoenix Partners embodies an approach to client service which is
refreshing in the market place and I am keen to be part of
that."
