Employee-owned B2B PR and marketing agency Skout has today announced a new senior hire for its growing technology practice.
Jack Doyle joins the Macclesfield-based agency as senior account manager and will be supporting the business on a growing list of clients during an exciting period of growth.
Prior to joining Skout, Jack held positions at Manchester-based B2B agency Fourth Day and Dublin-based agency Hopscotch Europe, where he worked on a variety of global brands spanning consumer tech, HR, fintech, transport and digital manufacturing.
He brings to Skout five years of both consumer and B2B tech PR experience, and will be positioned primarily within the business’ tech practice, which boasts international B2B clients such as Vertex Inc. and Stone: A Converge Company.
Jack Doyle adds: “I’m thrilled to be joining the team at Skout. Over the years, I’ve developed a real curiosity in new, emerging technology and a passion for tech PR for established global brands. I look forward to applying this while working closely with Skout’s impressive, and ever-growing, portfolio of B2B tech clients.”
“It also feels great to become part of an employee-owned business based in the North West – a stone’s throw away from Manchester which is the UK’s top digital tech city – and one that invests great time and resources into its people, company culture and overall purpose – all of which contribute greatly to Skout’s growth as an agency.”
“The tech industry is one of the fastest growing industries in the world and we expect this to continue. In response, we are bringing in new talent and continuously strengthening our services to support businesses in this area with their marketing and communications,” adds Skout’s Head of Tech, Lee Simpson.
Founder and MD of Skout Rob Skinner comments: “At Skout we endeavour to help businesses build brilliant relationships and we are always looking for people that complement our values. Jack, with his extensive background in tech PR, will help us create meaningful stories for our clients and play a key role in engaging audiences in the UK and further afield.”
Skout’s recruitment drive supports its award-winning work. Now in its thirteenth year, Skout boasts a portfolio of long-standing clients and exciting new wins, specialising in industries including B2B technology, whitegoods manufacturing, healthcare, hospitality, HR, marketing, construction, and financial services.
