The new hires are Colette Cordes, the new senior account director, Alyce Christiansen, the new account manager, and Orla Doyle, the new account executive.

Corder is a 13-year global communications specialist who has developed campaigns and storytelling strategies for global entertainment brands, including LEGO, Warner Bros, and HBO. Prior to joining Organic Pacific, she held communications roles at Australia’s campervan, motorhome, and caravan sharing community Camplify and The Walt Disney Company London.

She has also worked on dynamic campaigns for Warner Bros, including the company’s first global fan event, DC FanDome, and the 2019 film Joker.

And lastly, Doyle is an AFTRS graduate, and emerging screenwriter and director. Her impressive showreel includes short films, music videos, and online drama series, while her experience working as a marketing assistant means she is finely attuned to the need to deliver results, as well as greatly creative.

Annabelle Gigliotti, Organic Pacific’s head of entertainment, commented it is gratifying to have such fantastic new clients from across the arts and entertainment industry recognise the value of their world-class communications services and join them from the outset. 

“We’re equally thrilled to welcome such talented and passionate individuals as Colette, Alyce, and Orla to the fold as we scale our business to service our new clients,” said Gigliotti.

The Sydney-based operation launched as Organic’s Asia Pacific arm. It offers clients access to Organic’s renowned campaign services, local, and international publicity, unit production publicity, corporate representation, and film and television festival representation, as well as digital activations, and social media management, amongst many others.

Sydney, Australia – Seasoned political and strategic communications advisor Jacqui Munro has officially joined the team at PR and brand experience agency Red Havas as its new senior account director, as well as second in-charge to head of public affairs Lawrence Muskitta.

The recent appointment comes after Red Havas has won new business accounts, as well as strengthened its newly-created public affairs service offering.

Speaking about her appointment, she said that she welcomes the opportunity to leverage her expertise to help clients build and manage long-term stakeholder relationships, navigate institutions and government and constructively engage in policy discussion.

“Developing a new public affairs offering with Lawrence and Red Havas presents the best of both worlds: The excitement of a fresh venture with limitless possibilities backed in by the strength of a respected industry player and a huge amount of talent to draw on,” Munro said.

Meanwhile, Lawrence said Munro’s experience in public policy and media relations brought invaluable political perspectives and experience to the agency’s public affairs offering.
