Dom Robertson, managing director of RPM, said: "Our focus on brand behaviour is taking on many new and divergent forms, everything from events through to apps, via radio and even glassware.
"Our digital, strategy and creative departments have consequently become increasingly important areas within the business. And it’s essential to have a diverse mind-set steering the company from board level. With such a varied and experienced ecosystem of talent, we are now in an even stronger position to help brands create positive impacts through their actions."
