Hunter's primary focus will be to oversee delivery and implementation across all of the agency’s Johannesburg and Cape Town clients while supporting the managing director with new business and the day to day company operations. He will also pilot strategy formulation, content development and media relations.

Hunter has more than a decade’s local and international PR and content marketing experience, including both corporate in-house roles and full 360-degree agency practice. He will drive the integration of the firm’s range of communication and publicity services across all owned, earned, shared and paid platforms to leading brands in the technology, business, hospitality, sports, events and government sectors.

Hunter’s former clients include: United Nations, UNICEF (stakeholder relations), Anglo American Platinum (CSR), The Oyster Box Hotel (strategic media relations), Woolworths (end-to-end PR campaign delivery), Giant Leap workspace specialists (corporate in-house communications) and Hyundai (sports/lifestyle event sponsorship).

Commenting on the appointment, consultancy founder and chairperson Marcus Brewster says: “In our 25th anniversary year, it’s extremely gratifying to have Adam, a former marcusbrewster alumni, return to the firm which gave him his professional grounding in PR. In the intervening years, Adam has furthered his career by advancing into the content creation and corporate PR arenas and brings a red-corpuscled infusion of these skills to the mb bloodline. We are thrilled to have such an accomplished senior executive back on board with the marcusbrewster family.”

Hunter’s appointment is the second senior position announced at the agency in the last month. In January, the firm’s Strategic Communications Director Andre Fourie was promoted to managing director.

The consultancy’s client list includes international and local brands such as SAP, takealot.com, Edge Growth and wiGroup, amongst others.
