Hunt (pictured) was previously a director at WPP-owned consultancy Penn Schoen Berland where she focused on the technology and gaming sectors.

Earlier in her career she had spells with Coatue Capital and Benenson Strategy Group in New York.

Our client projects are ever more global and with her drive, skills and energy, Emily is just the sort of experienced professional that we want to bring on board.”
