PayPal seeks new European and Asian PR partners

11th May 2015

PayPal is seeking new PR partners to manage its comms activities in the Europe, Middle East and Africa (EMEA) and Asia-Pacific regions.

Currently, Grayling handles the majority of the company's EMEA business, while Edelman oversees the UK. The two agencies also handle the client's Asian and US comms activity, with MSLGroup also contributing to efforts in the US.

PayPal is seeking a new strategy as its prepares for life as an independent organisation, as parent company eBay moves ahead with plans to spin it off. PayPal's growth has outpaced eBay's for some time, and overtook it in revenue terms during the first quarter of 2015.

Amanda Groty was recently hired from Hill and Knowlton Strategies as PayPal's senior EMEA director of comms, working out of London and Luxembourg.

A PayPal statement on the pitch said: "As we move toward becoming an independent, public company later this year, we are ensuring we have the best comms agency partnerships to deliver world-class work."ADNFCR-8000103-ID-801786881-ADNFCR
