Former Waggener Edstrom head of digital Jon Silk joins Bite
Bite Communications has appointed Waggener Edstrom's former head of digital Jon Silk to its board of directors.
Silk will provide consultancy on strategic digital communications across Europe and will work on campaigns with the agency's heads of content, creative and client services.
"Jon’s role will be to be at the forefront of Bite’s client-focused strategy and he’s going to play a key part in unifying our approach across Europe by working with our specialists to deliver bigger, better, and bolder campaigns,” said Kath Pooley, MD Europe at Bite.
Silk's appointment follows a ramping up of Bite's content team with the arrivals of ex-journalists Mike Harvey (The Times) and Justin Pearse (New Media Age).
"Clients today demand content and digital expertise to be at the heart of their marketing strategies and Bite has responded by embedding these capabilities into our DNA,” said Pooley.
