Damien Wells

Founder and CEO

Spa Communications celebrated its 20-year birthday in 2023, but of the last two decades the last three or four years have been the most exciting. As we’ve grown, working with great clients and building a terrific team, I’ve come to enjoy new things about being in business.

Mandy Flashman-Wells

Financial Director

As co-founder and Financial Director, I enjoy the fact that Spa Communications is very much like a family, with all our team members highly valued. Damien and I have a shared vision about our individual and collective responsibility to make the world a better place where we can.

Rory Flashman

Director

As Director, my role sits between campaign strategy and execution, and operations. Day-to-day I love the media relations side of the business and am at my best when supporting the team with pitching, securing coverage ops, or connecting our clients with journalists.

Charlotte Wood

Account Director

With 12+ years experience creating and executing integrated B2B marketing campaigns for global technology companies, I take pride in helping brands to define their strategy, connect with customers and grow their business.

Simon Merrick

Consultant Account Director

Before PR, I worked in California for a company developing data over twisted pair technology. Two years later I helped win the pitch for the first PR campaign of that technology. I help clients plan and achieve their PR goals. People connect with people - technology is the platform we use to expand those relationships.

Lucy Simcox

Senior Account Manager

After completing a degree in Fashion Promotion I’ve since experienced a variety of different PR roles and industries including Fashion, Lifestyle, Foodservice, and now the world of Tech. I joined Spa in 2021 and since have been a part of the company’s expansion with many new team members and clients jumping on board.

Annabel Thompson

Senior Account Manager

I started working at Spa in May 2023. Before this my career started in sports campaigning where I probably learnt more about the importance of a clear constant message to drive a campaign than anywhere else. Following this I got my first job in broadcasting PR where I worked for Sky for six years before entering the agency world at Plank PR working with both pay and public providers.

Laura Thorpe

Digital PR and Social Media Manager

Before working in PR, I worked at a publishing house where I gained a love of writing. Having learned the ropes as an Account Executive, I eventually joined Spa in 2020 – diving into the world of technology and social media, developing impactful campaigns across our sector and platforms.

Casey Heyburn

Multimedia Production Manager

My background in broadcasting began at BBC Radio Kent in 2015. Since then, I’ve presented and produced shows across BBC Radio Kent, BBC Radio Sussex & Surrey, and BBC Radio London, as well as trained new presenters and producers for the BBC.

Eloise Shenton

I found my calling in digital marketing as a Social Media Executive for a website design agency. I joined Spa Communications in January 2024 as Junior Social Media Manager, diving head-first into an unknown industry –the fab team here have helped me hit the ground running in my new role.

Tristan Van Den Berg

Account Manager

I have been in the B2B technology industry, serving on the agency side for over four years. Moving to Spa Communications as an Account Manager, working with data centre and digital infrastructure clients allows me to expand my knowledge in the B2B tech sector and work with an excellent team.

Jessica Bell

Account Executive

I am currently completing my placement year at Spa; I go to university at London South Bank University where I study Marketing with Advertising and Digital Communications. I’m located in Essex and spend most of my spare time at the gym, drinking wine with friends or spending far too long stuck in a puzzle!

Hannah Ramsey

Junior Account Executive

After graduating from Bournemouth University with an Honours degree in Multimedia Journalism, I knew I wanted to explore the PR world. I joined Spa Communications in May 2024 as a Junior Account Executive, to grow my skills to support our clients - going straight into an unknown but exciting industry.
