\n\tEXCLUSIVE: <\/strong>Gersh<\/a> has hired senior agent April Tombs<\/a> as a partner and Head of Global Branding and Endorsements, also announcing four promotions within the department.<\/p>\n

\n\tTombs brings more than two decades of experience as a leading branding and endorsements agent. She began her career at ICM, building a strong foundation in talent representation and brand partnerships, before continuing her career at UTA for 10 years. After more than 20 years at global agencies, she launched her own consulting company, Archer, in partnership with the UK-based management firm YMU, advising talent on strategic branding and endorsement opportunities.<\/p>\n

\n\tTombs\u2019 appointment comes as Gersh continues to expand the scope and scale of its branding and endorsements group, which has become an increasingly integral part of the agency\u2019s client strategy across both entertainment and sports.<\/p>\n

\n\tGersh\u2019s promotees include Ben Atkins<\/a> (to Vice President, Conventions), Dominique Koski<\/a> (to Agent, Branding and Endorsements), as well as Abigail Stark<\/a> and Tiara Fielding<\/a> (to Coordinator).<\/p>\n

\n\tGersh President Leslie Siebert told us this morning, \u201cApril is a proven leader with exceptional taste, deep relationships, and a global perspective that aligns perfectly with Gersh\u2019s own direction. We\u2019re thrilled to welcome her to the agency, and equally proud to recognize the promotions of Ben, Dominique, Abigail and Tiara within the department, which reflect both the strength of our team and the growing importance of this business to our clients.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\tGersh\u2019s new VP, Conventions Atkins was promoted to agent after joining Gersh as a coordinator in the Global Branding & Conventions department in 2022. He began his entertainment career at ICM Partners and before that worked as a consultant in Canadian politics, serving on campaign leadership teams for multiple cabinet ministers and high-ranking officials.<\/p>\n

\n\tKoski has most recently been a coordinator and assistant in Gersh\u2019s Branding and Endorsements group, having previously worked in the agency\u2019s Talent department. Prior to Gersh, she worked at Artist and Brand, Innovative Artists, the Sundance Film Festival, and SCAD Savannah Film Festival.<\/p>\n

\n\tNotable clients supported by Gersh recently in the Branding and Endorsements group include Jacob Elordi (Bottega Veneta, Cartier), Chase Infiniti (Louis Vuitton), Drew Starkey (Loewe, Yves Saint Laurent Beauty), Sarah Pidgeon (Chanel), and Spike Lee (Fiat, Armani, Timberland), among others.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"EXCLUSIVE: Gersh has hired senior agent April Tombs as a partner and Head of Global Branding and Endorsements,…\n","protected":false},"author":3,"featured_media":504634,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[33],"tags":[226104,226105,226106,185,226107,171,66397,226108,67,132,68],"class_list":{"0":"post-504633","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-celebrities","8":"tag-abigail-stark","9":"tag-april-tombs","10":"tag-ben-atkins","11":"tag-celebrities","12":"tag-dominique-koski","13":"tag-entertainment","14":"tag-gersh","15":"tag-tiara-fielding","16":"tag-united-states","17":"tag-unitedstates","18":"tag-us"},"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/pubeurope.com\/@us\/115867299616019809","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/504633","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/3"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=504633"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/504633\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/504634"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=504633"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=504633"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=504633"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
