Colenso PR chief exits

EditorNews Make a Comment

AUCKLAND, Today: Colenso BBDO head of activation & PR Paul Gunn left the agency on Friday. He confirmed his departure to M+AD by telephone this morning.

He said he’d left to concentrate on “a project I’m working on”.

The agency has yet to confirm the news – despite repeated calls and emails to MD Scott Coldham and creative chairman Nick Worthington. Pretty shoddy for an agency that’s usually the first to send out favourable news releases.

We were originally alerted by Gunn’s failure to respond to recent emails – as a professional PR man he’s usually right on the ball with quick responses.

He said Natalie Downes was now handling the experiential role, while Joe Carter – who previously worked alongside Gunn – will continue doing agency PR.

Gunn said he’ll tell us more about his news project, “when I’m able to”.
