AMG Group Appoints New PR Co-ordinator
JUNE 2007
Leading outdoor, snowsport and footwear equipment supplier AMG Group is pleased to announce the appointment of Carys Wynn-Mellor as PR Co-ordinator for the company's outdoor and snowsport division.
Carys joins AMG Group from Doncaster Council where she worked as Communications Account Executive and she will now take responsibility for AMG's internal communications and external PR – promoting the brand values of Vango, Force Ten, Lichfield, Trangia, Storm, Wayfayrer, Rossignol and Phoenix .
Commenting on the appointment, Clare Murphy - AMG Group Marketing Manager said: “We are delighted to welcome Carys to the company and we're confident that her mix of skills, interests and aspirations will make her a valuable member of the team. She has an empathy with the outdoor and snowsport markets and will be sure to support AMG in providing an excellent service to staff, journalists, retailers and consumers alike.”
After graduating from Leeds Metropolitan University in PR with French, Carys went on to become a full member of the Chartered Institute of Public Relations and with over four years' PR experience, she has worked in a variety of sectors for organisations such as Macmillan Cancer Support, Sash UK Ltd and Don Valley Stadium.
As a keen outdoor enthusiast, Carys is pleased to be putting her skills to good use in an industry she feels passionate about and she looks forward to further developing her interest in outdoor and snowsport activities throughout her career at AMG. Carys first developed a love for the outdoors as a Duke of Edinburgh's Award participant and then later cultivated an interest in snowsport during her student years in the French Alps.
Following the company's significant growth over the last few years, AMG has separated outdoor and snowsport from footwear to create two divisions - ensuring that specialist attention is given to each area. The new PR post became available after the internal promotion of Gary Craig - former PR Co-ordinator for all AMG brands, who now takes responsibility for the PR and Marketing for AMG's Footwear Division. Gary will look after the company's three exciting footwear brands - Simple, Teva and UGG Austrailia.
AMG group appoints Karol to
handle PR
AMG Group has appointed PR agency Karol – part of The Karol Marketing
Group – to handle the PR for the company’s Vango and Lichfield
brands with effect from 16th October 2006.
Both brands will benefit from Karol’s experience in not only the outdoor
market, but also the national media. Karol has received numerous prestigious
industry awards including PR Consultancy Team five times, and were recently
appointed PR agency for AMG’s leading watersports and lifestyle footwear
brand, Teva.
Commenting on the appointment AMG Group Marketing Manager, Clare Murphy said:
“The outdoor market is continuously changing, and therefore it is essential
that our brands adapt accordingly. This means looking at the way we communicate
our brands to our target markets and reaching out to new markets. PR is a
critical part of our overall marketing campaign and it is essential we try
to get across Vango’s personality, dynamic product offering and values
to our existing and new consumers.
“Over a short period of time managing our Teva brand, Karol has quickly
recognised the need to broaden the brands reach to meet a new and diverse
audience. We therefore had no hesitation in turning to Karol to execute a
similar brief for Vango and Lichfield, albeit within a different market sector.
Karol Account Manager Kerrie Crammond added:
“We are delighted to be enhancing our partnership with AMG Group and
are very pleased to have been given the opportunity to work with two well
established outdoor brands, each with a strong heritage.
Vango’s 2007 product range is regarded as the brands most dynamic and
strongest ever. We are determined to match the expectations of AMG Group by
taking this well loved brand to a younger audience and reaching all Vango’s
target markets.”
