Theory Crew’s founder and managing director Felicity Grey said the newly created roles are a result of a rapidly expanding offering at Theory Crew.

“We’re known for our PR work across traditional and digital media, and our long-standing expertise in influencer marketing and now it’s time to formally extend our offering to respond to the changing media landscape. Throughout COVID we worked with our clients to offer a holistic marketing approach.”

“We executed a range of short, sharp campaigns throughout the pandemic resulting in up to 67 per cent sales uplift. Our modern digi-PR approach is designed with the market in mind and mixes paid, earned and owned to give brands performance based results.”

Internally, Theory Crew has promoted three positions, including Angela Reynoldson, promoted from account director to the newly created role of general manager.

“Angela has been instrumental in our growth over the years. Her commitment to our clients’ businesses is paramount to our success. She is an absolute pleasure to work with and I am thrilled to appoint her to this newly created role,” Grey said.

“I’ve had the pleasure of working with Theory Crew since 2013 and I’m honoured to take up the new General Manager role as we commence our next phase of growth. I am so proud of the team’s achievements during the past challenging year. Theory Crew has some exciting initiatives on the agenda this year, and a talented team which I am proud to lead,” Reynoldson said.
