MRM, the London-based financial services PR consultancy, has promoted Chris Duncan to the position of director, with immediate effect.

Chris has worked as a senior consultant at MRM for almost five years and has played a significant role in the success of the business to date.

As a director, Chris will work closely with founding directors Andrew Appleyard and Richard Wheat to ensure the business continues to develop and grow in line with their ambitions for the future.

Chris joined MRM in February 2007 from the Lloyds TSB corporate communications team. Prior to that, he was a financial journalist, working latterly as investment editor at leading trade paper Money Marketing.

Commenting on the appointment, Andrew Appleyard said:

“I have known and worked with Chris for many years. He is an operator of the very highest quality who has played an important role in helping MRM become the business it is today. This promotion is in recognition of the contribution he has made over the years and will ensure we are able to make even greater use of his experience and knowledge as we look to continue to develop and grow the business.”
