Strategic communications and public relations agency Duo Consulting appointed seasoned communications professional Will Stone as Associate Director.
Stone brings over twenty years of communications experience across global businesses and agencies. He previously worked for techUK, Atmos International and UPM and has worked with scale-up companies in Finland and the UK.
Dan Sheridan, founder and MD of Duo Consulting, said: “As we continue with our growth plans, making a senior appointment is critical to developing our offer and expertise. Will’s experience in B2B manufacturing, tech and education complements our existing and future client base. In addition, he has significant knowledge of sustainability, innovation and stakeholder engagement.”
Will Stone added: “Dan’s passion and vision for Duo Consulting was the main driver for me to join the business. I’m looking forward to helping Dan grow the business and working with the current calibre of clients on our roster.”
Duo Consulting has also appointed its first external advisor. David de Koning, recently Director of Investor Relations and Communications at Funding Circle, has more than a decade of experience working at the heart of the high-growth business, both pre and post-IPO. He will support management with the development of client service propositions, and lend first-hand insight to Duo’s scale-up clients, particularly in finance and tech.
The appointments follow new clients for Duo, including Garrison, a London-headquartered cybersecurity specialist, and Vypr, a Manchester-based innovation intelligence platform.
The business based in Altrincham is currently recruiting a senior consultant to join the team.
