Lynne McDowell to leave BPI to launch new PR firm
By Andy Malt | Published on Friday 27 March 2015
Record label trade group the BPI has announced that its Head Of PR, Lynne McDowell, is to leave the organisation at the end of this month in order to launch her own communications company.
In a statement, BPI chief exec Geoff Taylor said: “Lynne’s professionalism and dedication were huge assets to the BPI and we are delighted that she will continue to consult for us. We wish her the very best in this new chapter of her career”.
McDowell herself added: “After more than five wonderful years at the BPI, I feel it is time for a new adventure. Setting up my own PR company feels like the next logical step in my career and I’m excited to already be working with some of my favourite music companies, whilst remaining a consultant for the BPI. I’d like to thank all my friends in the industry, especially Geoff and my BPI colleagues – past and present – for their support”.
Joining the BPI in 2009 as Public Affairs And Communications Executive, McDowell was promoted to the position of Head Of PR a year ago.
