PaceUp Media, the cycling and adventure sports PR and communications agency, has today announced the hiring of Robert Jones and Ben Davies.

Jones, formerly of Shift Active Media and YouTube channel the Global Cycling Network (GCN), will bring social media management and copywriting expertise. Davies has previously worked with the likes of Under Armour, Maximuscle, Betsafe and Tough Mudder during his time at PR agency PrettyGreen.

PaceUp Media director Tom Copeland said: “PaceUp’s ability to attract talent the calibre of Ben and Robert, further reinforces the great reputation we have developed in a relatively short time. We couldn’t be more excited to welcome our new recruits and can’t wait to see them in action doing what they do best!”
