Health4Brands names new general manager

Health4Brands has promoted Gerry Crawford from client services director to general manager of the agency.

Ms Crawford can boast more than 25 years of integrated, cross-border, cross-discipline and through-the-line experience of working with both agencies and client companies.

The Havas Health-owned firm announced the appointment as part of a series of recent personnel changes, including former managing director Brad Sellars' move to a new role within the Havas Health network.

Additionally, Marina Via has been promoted to account manager, with Kathy Svejdar recruited as an account director, Kechi Chinda joining as a senior account executive and Christine Kyme taking on the role of senior copywriter.

Mr Sellars said: "I am confident that Gerry's abundant experience and energy will drive the agency forward and ensure we continue to deliver on our 'good chemistry' commitment to our clients."

The new appointments will be based at Health4Brands' London office. The agency also has European offices in Manchester, Dusseldorf, Madrid, Paris and Milan, in addition to a number of North American locations.
