Cravenhill Publishing, home of the Transform Awards, Digital Impact Awards and Employer Brand Management Awards is expanding the remit of its Corporate Content Awards to North America.

Not the first former MP to turn to a career in communications and likely not the last, Amber Rudd, former secretary of state for work and pensions, will join executive advisory firm Teneo. She is not the only former politician to be appointed by the company this week. Teneo’s US office also announced the appointment of former EY CEO and George W Bush’s assistant secretary of the treasury, Mark Weinberger.

Digital communications is a necessity of any modern business. Excellence in the strategic development of corporate digital communications has been celebrated by the Digital Impact Awards since 2010. This year’s awards will be no different.

Excellence in these areas of communications is celebrated at the ninth annual Corporate & Financial Awards.

For the fifth year, the Employer Brand Management Awards is announcing its shortlist. After deliberation by a panel of expert judges, the shortlist has set a high standard for work in the attraction, engagement and retention of employees.
