Malleo joins PAN from San Francisco-based full-service PR and digital marketing agency SutherlandGold, where she served as senior vice president. Prior to that she was a VP of client engagement at global communications agency Lewis, where she was stationed for nearly four years.

As VP of PAN’s West Coast outpost, Malleo will lead a portfolio of the agency’s tech and healthcare accounts while working with teams to develop client relationships and business opportunities.

She will be working alongside executive vice president and managing director Phil Carpenter, an Allison+Partners alum who was hired in January to oversee growth at the agency’s San Francisco and Orlando outposts.

Boston-headquartered PAN, which maintains additional office in New York and Orlando, accounted for more than $13.1 million in net fees in 2015.
