“Jane arrives at an important juncture for Pumpkin. With the new challenging landscape, she will really help us harness and deliver more value to our clients. Over recent weeks we have already been honing our proposition and changing or adding to our services. She has already hit the ground running with a number of key initiatives and I know she is going to thrive here.”

Bainbridge will also support the management team in delivering Pumpkin’s bespoke project work   including crafting white papers, in-house corporate writing, media training, internal communications and strategic communications counsel.

“It’s never been more important to tell brand and client stories in a meaningful way. Jane will be a brilliant new resource for our clients, and I’m thrilled that it is Pumpkin that has enticed her into agency life,” Owen added.

Bainbridge said: “Pumpkin has a brilliant reputation among journalists and clients alike for being passionate and tenacious and truly caring about what they do. They have a stellar roster of clients and I am excited to join them.”
