Our people

William Quennell. Following the sale of his last new business company in the USA and having built and run two of the world’s most successful new business agencies, William Quennell (Pitch’s Founder and Chairman), decided to take some time to re-think the accepted new business agency model.

An old hand in the new business world, though not too ancient at 42, William realized that the “old” model (high monthly retainer and the vague promise of a number of qualified new business meetings) badly needed bringing up to date. The old model simply isn’t sustainable, evidenced by the owner of one of the largest new business generation companies in the US admitting in last year that their average client retention was just 7 months.

Tim Fordham-Moss. Before joining Pitch PR as Managing Partner, he was with Publicis Group international PR firm MS&L for over nine years in differing roles including joint MD of the London office and Global Account Director for P&G, one of the agency's largest international clients. Over the nine years Tim was with MS&L London the agency grew 500% thanks to new business wins, both domestic and international, from companies such as Procter & Gamble, Philips, Starwood Hotels and Resorts, Western Union and First Data.

Tim has over two decades' experience in public relations, working extensively across FMCG, corporate, consumer and healthcare sectors at senior management levels. This work has ranged across issues and crisis management, corporate reputation, integrated marketing campaigns, international program direction and co-ordination, senior counsel and the numerous financial disciplines of running agencies, clients and international accounts.
