Rhian Robinson expands remit to APAC as Battenhall grows regional footprint

Battenhall has promoted Rhian Robinson to Managing Director, UK, EMEA & Asia-Pacific (APAC), expanding her current leadership remit beyond the UK and EMEA regions.

Battenhall's expansion into APAC and Rhian�s elevated role sees the establishment of the agency's new regional hub in Singapore. This move follows the increased client growth under her leadership in the Australian, Chinese, Indian, Philippine and Thai markets, with recent account wins across the FMCG, technology, science and fashion sectors.

Battenhall CEO, Drew Benvie, said, �Rhian has been instrumental in delivering our most successful year to date at Battenhall since joining us nine years ago. The success she has delivered in global growth across APAC, while running the UK and EMEA operations, demonstrates both her abilities and the trust that clients are willing to place in her and her teams. She has already established a core team in the region, with employees in India, the Philippines, and Thailand, who will be key team members in Battenhall�s next phase of growth in APAC and internationally.�

Rhian commented, �I�ve been fortunate to be part of a tremendous APAC growth journey for Battenhall�s global clients over the past year. What comes next, with new clients in APAC, and team expansion plans, will help Battenhall to deliver even greater international reach and deep regional capabilities. I�m thrilled to be part of it.�A
