Chandler Chicco Agency appoints new managing director

Chandler Chicco Agency has appointed Anne-Marie Rodriguez de Killeen as its new managing director (MD).

Ms Rodriguez de Killeen has been promoted from the role of PR consultant following the departure of previous MD Jeff Smith, who left the company at the end of last year to pursue new opportunities, reports PRWeek.

The new MD has been with the media agency since 2009 and previously served as a member of the operational board of directors at Ogilvy Healthworld UK for a number of years.

In her new role, she will report directly to Fiona Hall, Chandler Chicco Agency's MD for the EU region.

Ms Hall said: "Her creative and innovative approach to brand communications, combined with her strong personal and organisational development skills, make her an ideal leader for our business."

In August 2010, the organisation expanded its healthcare management team with the appointment of Alison Wright, formerly of Cohn and Wolfe, to a newly-created position.
