Scott Hoeflich, former communications director to Sen. Arlen Specter, has moved to RLM Finsbury in Washington as a senior VP.
Hoeflich has been a senior associate at D.C. public affairs shop IKON, handling transportation and pharmaceutical clients for the past two years.
RLM Finsbury CEO Walter Montgomery said the firm is reinforcing a commitment to build a “world-class” D.C.-based practice. Hoeflich is slated for assignments “at the intersection” of strategic communications and PA.
RLM partner Stephen Labaton, a New York Times veteran who joined in September, and partner Eric Eve, formerly of Citigroup and the New York City Comptroller’s Office, a February 2012 hire, head the firm’s D.C. operation.
Hoeflich joined Specter’s office in 1999 as a college intern and rose to become communications director and chief of staff. Specter died in October, two years after losing his Senate seat.
RLM Finsbury is part of WPP.
