Management consulting firm Celerant Consulting has appointed the agency Hanover to provide it with corporate comms. Hanover previously worked with Celerant on an informal basis, but will now work on a retained basis.

Hanover’s job will include demonstrating the consulting firm's expertise in the energy, private equity and telecommunications sectors.

Charles Lewington, managing director at Hanover, said:

“The current challenging economic climate provides us with the ideal opportunity to do so, as increasing operational efficiency and delivering measurable value from consulting is now a key focus for businesses across all sectors.”

Established 20 years ago, Celerant has grown into the largest independent specialist firm in the field of operations management. It has competed a total of 700 projects in 98 countries worldwide over the decades and, in 2007, it delivered over $1 billion in sustainable savings for its clients.
