Management of The Communications Council and PADC consolidate in Perth

The management of industry bodies The Communications Council and the Perth Advertising and Design Club are consolidating with the PADC to be powered by The Comms Council in WA with the body’s state manager Danielle Norrish to oversee the administration of the two organisations.

In a statement Norrish said: “An agreement has been entered into by the two associations, and the PADC will remain an independent entity. The aim of this agreement is to streamline process, ensure cost-efficiencies, unite our work in raising the credibility and profitability of the advertising and marketing industry in Western Australia, and to deliver a consolidated industry approach to advocacy, professional development and representation to government, media and the public.”

The Communications Council CEO Tony Hale said: “This is a very important move for both organisations, galvanising the thriving community in WA. A consolidated approach means greater efficiencies as well as greater support for members across both groups.”
