She has experience drafting policy for charities and interned under a Crown prosecutor. and understands the relationship between the public and corporate sectors and maximising reciprocal benefits, an area important for the consultancy.
Wouters completed a double major in English and philosophy at the University of Auckland and is completing his master’s in business management, focusing on strategy. He wrote his honours thesis on the ‘oxymoronic nature of social media’, exploring the ways in which social media is inherently anti-social. His work history contributes to his understanding of industry and operations.
BBR executive director Fred Russo said: “With management experience in hospitality, and time spent working in construction, scaffolding, roofing and truck driving, Henry brings street smarts and transferrable skills to BBR.
“The new recruits will support the business’s senior team to offer a broad suite of quality services to long term and more recent clients alike.
“We now have an embarrassment of riches with this bunch of extremely smart and capable graduates. That means we can continue to provide quality communications services to our existing clients while looking for opportunities to grow the business,” says Russo. “If you’re in the market for strategic public relations advice from an award-winning agency, we’d love to buy you a coffee.
“Let’s talk.”
