Byfield, the UK’s pre-eminent legal sector focused communications consultancy, announces today the promotion of a new Director, Beth Durkin. Beth has been with Byfield for eight years, commencing her career at the agency as an account executive in 2017.
The promotion of Beth to Director marks a significant point in Byfield’s growth story as she is the first internal promotion to Director in the agency’s history. She joins Founder Director Gus Sellitto, joint Managing Directors Michael Evans and Ben Girdlestone and Finance Director Amanda Cooper in leading the agency as it looks to grow its market leading position across legal sector public relations, Crisis and Litigation communications. Beth’s extensive experience sits across all three of these service lines.
Gus Sellitto said: ‘It’s wonderful to welcome Beth as a new Director at Byfield. Beth has played a prominent role in both our growth and the successful diversification and internationalisation of our business over the last eight years. Beth also has a relentless focus on nurturing our collegiate working culture and supportive environment for our fantastic team. Beth’s promotion is testament both to her talent and the fact that Byfield offers a great career to ambitious legal PR professionals.’
