Jill Tannenbaum appointed chief comms and marketing officer at Weber Shandwick

Jill Tannenbaum had her own consultancy, Tannenbaum Communications, and has worked at Cohn & Wolfe and Bozell Public Relations. She has now been appointed chief communications and marketing officer at Weber Shandwick, and will be responsible for its internal and external strategic communications, and for representing Weber to current and potential employees, as well as clients.
Ms Tannenbaum will also lead VP of global corporate communications, and an expanding global team. Gail Heimann, president of Weber Shandwick, said: “What we’ve decided to do is add a position, in effect bringing together comms and marketing internally and externally, and to some degree it is a new position. Since 2012, the story we’ve been telling is Engaging, Always. Period. We’ve been telling that story with different nuances in different ways in different places. I think you will see us continue to refine that narrative. Jill will have the role of refining, defining, and elevating that narrative.”
