GolinHarris appoints dedicated head of technology

GolinHarris has announced the appointment of Elizabeth Littlewood as its first dedicated head of technology.

Ms Littlewood will sit on the agency's UK board and will lead GolinHarris' tech-focused offering, filling the gap created earlier this year when Jon Hughes moved from London to Hong Kong to head up its Asia-Pacific operations.

She joins the company from Lewis PR, where she served as head of its UK division and developed strategic tech, corporate and digital campaigns for UK and global clients, while previously she spent seven years with Grayling.

Her job will be to help GolinHarris develop its technology communications services for the benefit of leading clients such as EMC, Virgin Media and Infosys.

The agency's international president Matt Neale said: "Elizabeth's role is to deliver award-winning work and make GolinHarris' tech practice the undisputed market leader."

This comes after the firm hired James Bickerton as its first creative technologist last month.
