Long-time Emotional Rescue creative director expands her business involvement
Creative director Jennie Rutter has been appointed to the board at Emotional Rescue as her role has developed to help with the company’s business strategies.
Jen has been with the Tewkesbury-based publisher since 1995, initially as creative manager before becoming creative director in 2013.
Commenting on her new board position, Jennie told PG Buzz: “Having spent a long time at Emotional Rescue, it’s a great honour to be invited on to the board and to have the opportunity to be involved in the future of the business in a broader way.”
Although Jennie said she has been carrying out a proportion of the role for the past 18 months, “the changes that it brings are really interesting. It’s a great business, we have loads of great new product, lots of exciting things going on and I’m really looking forward to what 2023 brings”.
Owner David Greaves explained he and md Brett Smith invited Jen to join the board and are very pleased she had accepted. He added: “Jen has been in our business for over 25 years, she continues to play a pivotal role in our product development programmes. In recent years, Jen’s role has broadened into dealing with our customers and helping develop the company’s business strategies. We are delighted to welcome her to the board.”
David was a co-owner at Emotional Rescue for 22 years until Martin Nevin bought it in 2019, then David took over the business in its entirety in 2019, with Brett joining the company from Danilo, where he was sales director, to become managing director and a shareholder.
