GMR Marketing recruits McLaren's Crispin Bolt

GMR Marketing, the global sponsorship and brand experience agency, has appointed Crispin Bolt as its new Client Services Director for Motorsport.

Based out of the agency's EMEA HQ in London, Bolt joins in January after nearly six years at the McLaren Formula One Team where he was a Senior Partner Manager.

Prior to joining McLaren, Bolt spent over five years as an Account Director at Mindshare.

Bolt commented: "GMR is a world leading agency with an impressive history and client base. I have got to know them well over the last few years and I'm delighted to have been given the opportunity to join the team as they continue to develop their global motorsport capabilities".

James Hunt, GMR's Managing Director, said Bolt's work with McLaren's global blue chip partners and his extensive F1 experience were key factors in his appointment.

"We're delighted Crispin will be joining us", he said. "He brings a wealth of experience and his time at McLaren in particular will allow us to continue to enhance and develop our motorsport client offering".
