PUBLIC SECTOR: Assoc of Business Schools gets PR chief

The Association of Business Schools has appointed its first PR

manager. Clive Livermore, a former regional newspaper editor and

reporter for the Daily Express and Press Association, will report to

chief executive Jonathan Slack. The creation of Livermore's position

reflected a greater need to raise the profile of the ABS and its

members, both nationally and globally, said Slack. The ABS represents

more than 100 of the UK's business schools.
