Advent makes double appointment

Advent Communications has welcomed two new members to the team.

Ryan Merriman has joined as a new account manager, while we’ve also appointed Rob Milne as a graduate account executive.

Ryan, who studied criminology and journalism at the University of Lincoln, previously worked as content manager/sub editor at the Nuneaton News for nearly 12 years.

Rob joins Advent after graduating from the University of Sheffield with a first class degree in journalism studies. During his time at university, Rob also gained extensive experience working in PR and with regional newspapers.
