The team will be led by Good Relations Executive Director, David Wiles who said: “We are thrilled to be working with Avon in such a significant year for the brand. Avon is a brand with a huge amount of heritage and there are so many great stories to tell which provide a fantastic opportunity for PR. We’re looking forward to working closely with the internal team to help them drive brand reappraisal, reach new audiences and promote the amazing causes the company supports.”

The win adds to the agency’s consumer PR practice, which has clients including Subway, Lidl, Deezer and B&Q.

Beauty SEEN will continue to work as Avon UK’s beauty PR agency.
