Marketing communications and printing company Taylor Bloxham has appointed Teresa-Anne Dunleavy as CEO with immediate effect. 

Ms Dunleavy replaces Robert Lockwood who has moved to the position of non-executive director following a period of ill health.

A marketing postgraduate, Ms Dunleavy studied at Harvard Business School prior to embarking on a 20 year career in marketing communications and events. She has worked in chief executive roles at several large international companies and has held senior advisory roles for leading global brands including British Airways, Toyota and Nintendo. 

The Taylor Bloxham Group has undergone a period of transition over the last three years, expanding the company’s services from high quality printing to include additional brands specialising in creative design and production, direct mail and fulfilment.

‘Robert Lockwood has overseen our forward-looking diversification strategy, establishing divisions specialising in areas of marketing communications, all strategically designed to complement our core print offering,’ said group chair April Sharpless. ‘Now successfully embedded, Teresa-Anne joins with a brief to drive growth of our combined services as an integrated offering. She brings immense experience, outstanding business acumen and the drive needed to successfully compete in an increasingly aggressive market. I am delighted to announce her appointment and that we retain Robert’s expertise in his move to non-executive director.’
