Healthcare specialist Chandler Chicco has appointed Jennie Talman,
a managing director of Burson-Marsteller’s European healthcare division,
to head its European operation.
The appointment comes seven months after the departure of the firm’s
previous European head, Howard Godman (PR Week, 19 March).
Talman will work as part of a team of seven senior consultants and will
report directly to the company’s managing partners, Gianfranco Chicco
and Bob Chandler. ’My role will focus on market development and
marketing the agency,’ she said.
Talman joins Chandler Chicco directly from maternity leave. She spent
nine years at B-M and left as a member of its senior management team,
reporting to Dr Stuart Pinkerton, who heads B-M’s European healthcare
operation. B-M is now seeking an MD to join its senior management
team.
Chandler Chicco has also recruited Charlotte Rollins from Sante
Communications, where she was a senior account handler.
