The London Borough of Hammersmith and Fulham has transferred Carol
McMahon from her post of executive support head to take strategic
control of corporate PR. She takes on the newly created role of
communications manager, reporting to director of policy and
administration Henry Peterson. Day-to-day press office activity will be
managed by Louise Raisey, who will return from maternity leave early
next year to take up the role of press and publicity head. McMahon will
have overall control of a team of 15, spanning PR and publications. The
communications department restructure was instigated after the council
failed to fill the post of communications director, which was created in
February. The post has now been scrapped.
