18 November 2003

Chelgate Limited, has appointed Beth Guest as coordinator, EU services, at its Brussels office. She takes over from Fiona Wickham who has moved to Chelgate’s London headquarters to work on EU issues management with Nick Wood-Dow, chairman, client services.

Like her predecessor, Beth joins the company from the European Parliament where she was a political assistant to Jacqueline Foster MEP. Prior to working in the Parliament, Beth worked in the Press and Communication Directorate General at the European Commission Representation in London where she covered all aspects of EU policy and dealt with the press at a local, national and European level.

Terence Fane-Saunders, chairman and chief executive, said: “Fiona Wickham has done an outstanding job in Brussels, and her move to London means that she will be able to work closely with many of our head office clients on European issues, while still of course being a frequent visitor to Brussels.”

Mr Fane-Saunders said he was delighted that Beth Guest had also now joined the team: “It was never going to be easy to replace Fiona in Brussels. But Beth’s reputation preceded her, and I am certain she will make an invaluable contribution to the quality of our EU client service.”
