Staff shuffle at Wagstaffs

Wagstaffs has brought in three staff from the client side to strengthen the consultancy’s “brand partners” development.

Charlotte Gifford, formerly with GrandMet, becomes deputy group account director, and Helen Chick, previously at Peter Black Toiletries & Cosmetics, joins as an account director. Jo Shea has left Claessens to become account manager. “Brand partners” involves “the shared understanding of a client’s business issues to help build leadership brand positions”, says a consultancy spokesman.
