RESONANT GROUP APPOINTS STEPHEN MARCHANT CHIEF DEVELOPMENT OFFICER

ANNA KORVING ALSO JOINS AS NON-EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR

[10 June 2021] – Stephen Marchant has joined Resonant Group in the newly created role of Chief Development Officer.  He will be working with the Board to create, grow and acquire businesses and services to support changing client needs, as well as developing new approaches to the identification, support and recruitment of a diverse team of people to deliver real change in the healthcare communications sector.

Previously, Stephen was President, Group Strategy and Growth at Chameleon Communications International and Group Client Strategy Officer at Omnicom’s Healthcare Consultancy Group.

“Stephen’s track record and expertise speaks for itself, and we are delighted to welcome him to the team,” said David Youds, Founder and CEO of Resonant Group, which includes Origins Insights and Bedrock Healthcare Communications. “He joins us at an exciting time, as we plan the further development of our services in line with client needs.”

“For me, the energy and passion of the senior team leading the businesses within Resonant was a huge draw,” said Stephen. “There’s a massive opportunity to grow a compelling independent offer that will enable our clients to drive effective engagement across the spectrum of health communications.”

Anna Korving has also joined Resonant Group as a part-time non-executive director and advisor to the Board. Known in the industry for taking a group of agencies from start up through to acquisition by Publicis Health, Anna built one of the first truly integrated service offerings, Publicis Life Brands Resolute (now Langland).  In 2015 she created the informal networking group Women in Health Agency Management, which supports women working at director-level and above across the advertising, digital, medical communications, market research and public relations industries.

Both appointments reflect Resonant Group’s plans to bolster its offerings of authentic, actionable patient insights and creative medical communications with new services which rapidly deliver value for clients.
