One Plus One promotes two

Independent PR agency, One Plus One Communications, has announced the promotions of Hannah Kronast and Rosalie Basham to Account Director and Senior Account Manager, respectively.

The pair have been working closely together on the same team, and have made contributions to campaigns for the likes of 2degrees and RMHC.

One Plus One Managing Director, Kelly Bennett, says it feels appropriate to cap off an exceptional year by recognising some of the people who made it great.

"I've worked with Rosalie now for more than four years. She's been with us since she graduated and continues to challenge herself and get better everyday. I love that aspect of our role; to be able to teach somebody a really valuable trade and see them mature and flourish over years. At this stage in my career, it's genuinely my favourite thing," he said.

"Hannah joined us a bit more recently and continually impresses with her commitment to growth and delivering exceptional results for clients. She recently took it upon herself to complete the PRINZ APR accreditation, where she's certainly distinguished herself."
