Stone Junction has five consultants, all of whom are dedicated and passionate about what we do.

I set up Stone Junction in 2006 after spending seven years at PR firms Houston Associates and LEWIS PR. I can honestly say it was the best career move I've made. Setting the company up made PR fun again and allowed me to move my focus back to delivering client satisfaction.

My client experience in engineering and IT PR includes a host of global companies, such as SKF, Parker Hannifin, WorldCom, Arup, Cienna, Roche, AIT Plc and Schneider Electric, as well as a number of smaller specialists. Current industrial PR clients include Yokogawa, GAMBICA, Accutronics, Cressall Resistors, Verder and European Automation.

The time at Houston began in the PR team and was concluded as Business Development Director. The highlight of the final year included 49% growth - making us the fastest growing non start up in the UK, as measured by PR Week. My time at LEWIS was dominated by work on the WorldCom account during the giant firm's crisis period.
