Independent communications agency, Artemis Communications has announced the appointment of Hannah Pearce as Senior Account Manager. She joins the agency's growing public relations team in Auckland from The Walt Disney Company, where she developed and led a wide variety of campaigns, including most recently the release of the Te Reo Māori adaptations of The Lion King and Frozen.

On the new hire, Group CEO of Artemis Communications, Isobel Kerr-Newell said: "Hannah is a recognised PR practitioner in the New Zealand media landscape through her work on both global and local brands. She has already made her mark in her short time at Artemis Communications, most notably on Mercury’s Second Sun campaign."

Hannah’s appointment comes as Artemis signs Global Women as a retainer client, and recently collaborated with FCB Aotearoa and Mercury on a comms campaign.

"On the client side, we are thrilled to be working with Global Women again, a client both Beccy and I have worked with previously. As a Global Women member myself, we are ardent supporters of the collectives’ kaupapa and are looking forward to continuing to create space for their voice and mission in Aotearoa New Zealand’s media," Isobel added.
