Strengthening our strategy offering with Claire Dewhurst

March 1, 2022 Announcement

Senior Strategic Planner Claire Dewhurst has joined Rare, bringing with her more than 15 years of experience gained across multiple facets of the advertising and communications industry, including strategy, research, branding and creative projects. Six of those years were spent deeply embedded in the media industry with News Corp and Nine, and agency side with Match & Wood where she interrogated client media spends to maximise ROI.

“Uncovering human truths has always been the heart of my career,” Dewhurst said, “whether at the coalface in a market research role, media partner side looking at consumer behaviours and attitudes, or media agency side looking at target audience media consumption behaviours and designing a channel strategy that best fits.”

Dewhurst has worked on a number of WA’s largest clients in those roles, including national brand Bedshed while at Nine, helping HBF in partnership across various media platforms, and Synergy media planning and insight development.

“Rare’s culture was a big influence in my decision to join them,” Dewhurst said. “Their commitment to putting people first is a huge plus for working mums like myself. And their passion is unequalled. I’m surrounded by an incredibly smart bunch of people doing amazing work for some great local and national clients.”

Rare GM Marketing and Customer Insights Jez Reilly added, “As marketers it’s our job to create value that will leave a lasting impression on people so the next time they are in need, they remember our brand before others. Claire’s 15 years of experience across market research, media and communications, combined with her natural curiosity to look at problems from different angles will help us continue to achieve this.

“As Rare continues to grow, we’re looking for people to help us better integrate our departments. Claire’s multi-faceted background will help us better integrate Rare’s Strategy department with our in-house media agency Hearts and Science, along with our Digital department.”
