Josh Widdicombe, winner of the FMH Stand-Up Hero 2010, will headline this year’s Marketing & Advertising Recruitment Awards (MARA)
London, 13th June 2011
Regarded as one of the best up-and-coming acts on the UK circuit Josh is in constant demand at clubs and theatres across Britain. Josh is fast establishing himself on the live circuit supporting huge comic talent such as Kevin Bridges, Michael McIntyre and Alan Carr.
Simon Lewis, co-founder of MARA hosts, Only Marketing Jobs, said: “Josh’s involvement signals our intent to make these awards THE premier event in the marketing recruitment calendar, with the focus on fun. The success of 2010 means the bar has been set high but we’ve never been scared to push boundaries, and as with everything we do, there’s always an element of cheekiness.”
Last year’s MARAs was hosted by industry impresario, James Caan, and coincided with the worst snow to hit the UK in years, yet nearly 200 marketing recruiters attended the inaugural event at the prestigious Jumeirah Carlton Hotel.
This year the evening is expected to attract more than 250 guests, where marketing recruitment agencies will compete for 15 awards, including Best Social Media Strategy, Best Recruitment Website, Best Niche Agency and Recruitment Consultant of the Year.
MARA 2011 will be played out on 23rd November at the Park Plaza Hotel, Riverbank.
