After eight years working in New Zealand, Standen has been brought on to develop and implement PR strategy and manage day-to-day media relations for a range of clients.

I’ve always prided myself on my pragmatic approach towards developing and delivering out-of-the-box PR campaigns and I’m thrilled to now champion this across our impressive client roster.”
Clear Hayes Principal Alex Hayes adds: “We’re delighted to welcome both Annie and Akansha on board to bolster our growing team here at Clear Hayes Consulting. Both are incredibly talented and smart operators who bring a high level of expertise and experience and are already delivering creative, interesting and highly effective solutions to our clients.
