PRT president Jim Delulio said the hire, along with the promotion of senior recruiters in two other cities, shows a sign of “continued strength” in the PR job market.
Davis was VP of recruitment for Edelman in a six-month stint that followed more than three years at Ketchum. She also brought in staff for Marina Maher Communications, Burson-Marsteller and CMP Media.
She’ll build a Chicago operation for PRT and also recruit for its New York outpost with newly promoted VP Diane Alexis. Marisa Mayer was also upped to VP for the Western region out of San Francisco.
He added that he sees the demand for public relations talent continuing to grow as corporations beef up their communications departments and require more PR services to help them manage ever-evolving social media and digital tools.
Delulio set of Huntington Beach-based PRT in 1998.
