Steve Strickland, account director with Slam PR has been appointed by Weber Shandwick as its head of creativity.

Stickland will report to Colin Byrne, UK & European CEO of Weber Shandwick and will be tasked with driving the creative capabilities of the company across the UK, working cross-agency and sitting as part of the firm’s UKcentral team.

Colin Byrne, commented said: “I’m delighted to welcome Steve to Weber Shandwick. Creativity is at the heart of everything we do and Steve’s appointment will further strengthen our creative capabilities. With his background and experience, he will be a valuable asset to both our staff and clients across the UK.”

Strickland added: “With the agency’s ever-growing strategic planning and digital capabilities, as well as a proven record in great, award-winning campaigns, Weber Shandwick was a natural choice for me. As creativity still battles with its own PR versus that of the advertising agency, it is great to work at an agency that puts so much emphasis on its creative muscle.”
