Clarkson was one of Honest Communication’s first employees having joined the company in 2020 and has recently returned to the business following maternity leave.
She said: “Honest is a truly unique agency, and one that I am so glad to be a part of. Having joined the business in its formative days, it is incredible to look back at how far we have come in such a short period of time. I’m looking forward to getting stuck into this new role, working alongside Holly to implement our growth plans while supporting the team on delivering great value for our clients.”
Managing director Holly Daulby added: “Fay has always been an integral part of the Honest team, and it has been a joy to see her role and experience evolve throughout her time at the agency so far. This promotion is incredibly well-deserved, and I’m confident that with Fay by my side and a fantastic team, the coming year for Honest will be an exciting one.”
