Thanks to its growing client portfolio, Warwickshire-based PR and communications agency Red Marlin has expanded its team with the appointment of a new account manager.

Chris Box will work alongside managing director Danny Rughobeer on some of Red Marlin's key accounts.  He brings with him ten years' experience in journalism and public relations, many of them in the automotive sector with some the world's most famous car manufacturers.

"I'm very excited to be joining Red Marlin which has established itself as a forward-thinking communications agency, committed to delivering excellent results for its clients. With a focus on automotive markets, I am looking forward to helping our customers raise their profiles as well as expanding Red Marlin's portfolio," said Chris.

Red Marlin was established in 2009 and is located in Leamington Spa's Althorpe Enterprise Hub. Its team has extensive experience working for car manufacturers and dealers, international motorsport teams, automotive component suppliers and car servicing businesses. The company provides a range of high-quality marketing and PR services to businesses including strategic communications consultancy, social media, press releases and media relations.

In recent months not only Red Marlin's clients have benefitted from coverage in a number of national newspapers, magazines and online publications, but they also appeared in a major feature on BBC TV's The One Show.

Danny Rughoobeer added: "It's great news to welcome Chris to Red Marlin. He has a wealth of relevant experience, great enthusiasm and strong communication skills which will prove to be a real asset for our clients. What's more, our expansion is also good news for Leamington and proves that despite the wider economic challenges, with the right approach businesses can still thrive and expand."
