PUBLIC SECTOR: Corp of London PRO moves to Chelgate PR

The Corporation of London has lost another senior PRO. Strategic press officer Mark Pursey has left after three years to join Chelgate PR as a senior counsellor. At CoL Pursey was joint press spokesman for, and media adviser to, the Lord Mayor and the head of the Corporation of London. The CoL has yet to fill its head of press position since the departure of Nigel Szembel to Deutsche Bank in May. Peter Lisley, head of corporate affairs and events, remains acting head of press for CoL and the Lord Mayor's press office.
