Ms Hutter will lead Hill & Knowlton’s efforts to build an integrated global practice in this area and will also take on the role of leading H&K’s internal communications. She will continue to serve in her current role as US practice leader for change and internal communications.

Ms Hutter has extensive experience across the global economy’s key sectors including defence, finance, healthcare, technology and retail, and direct experience leading change communications programs around corporate transformations, mergers and acquisitions and leadership changes.

Ms Hutter and her colleagues in H&K’s US C&IC practice counsel a number of Fortune 100 companies and provide full outsourcing of employee communications programmes to clients in multiple sectors.

Ken Luce, Global COO of H&K, said: “Lindsay’s expertise in internal communications and the challenges of change management helps us to better serve our clients and employees, both of whom are equally important to our company’s future. Lindsay has consistently demonstrated an ability to engage at the c-suite level and her strong track record will serve her well in her new role.”

Ms Hutter said: "The pace of corporate change is unprecedented in every market around the world, creating a growing need for our expertise in helping companies and their employees navigate transformations and ensure employees are effectively engaged through ongoing internal communications.

“I’m thrilled with the opportunity to not only bring our expertise to serve clients but also to deliver the same internal communications excellence to Hill & Knowlton’s talent around the world.”

Will Ms Hutter's experience benefit the firm?
