A Channel Islands-based creative communications agency has expanded its team with two new members.
Orchard has announced the appointment of Amelia Cousins and Amy Foote.
Ms Cousins takes on the role of Senior Account Executive in the Jersey team, and Ms Foote joins the team in Guernsey as an Account Manager.
They have both returned to their home islands following further education and career experience in the UK.
Ms Cousins joins Orchard from MAC Cosmetics in London, where she was a Communications & PR Coordinator.
She previously worked with L’Oreal and has a degree in Marketing Communications with PR from Bournemouth University.
The agency said she has strong experience in influencer marketing with a focus on inclusivity, diversity and equity.
Ms Foote has worked with brands such as Persil, Unilever and Visa, and has a degree in Business Management with Marketing from the University of Leeds.
Her specialism is in brand partnerships and sponsorship, having worked with the Olympic and Paralympic Committee – most recently as part of Paris 2024 – UEFA and the Ski and Snowboard Federation (FIS).
Brooke Kenyon, Orchard’s Managing Director – Strategy & Agency Growth, said: “It is really wonderful to welcome Amy and Amelia to our pan-island Orchard team.
“Not only do they bring impressive experience, but they also have strong island roots – which makes their arrival feel all the more special.
“I’m excited about the fresh perspectives and skills they’ll bring our clients and can’t wait to see the impact they’ll have as we continue to grow our business and brand across the Channel Islands and beyond.”
