Smith (pictured right) joined the Richmond, UK-based medical communications agency from Athena Medical PR in 2010 and was promoted to account director in 2014.
She has worked on accounts across a range of clinical areas, including cardiology, oncology, ophthalmology and women’s health.
Head of Liberation Unlimited Kim Lemon said: “Danielle is a key member of the Liberation Unlimited team and is viewed by her colleagues and clients as a leadership figure providing valuable advice and counsel.
“This is a very well-deserved promotion and reflects Danielle’s pivotal role in the continued growth of the agency.”
The agency, part of the Health Unlimited group, has also appointed recent graduate Lizzie Mannix-Pole (pictured left) as its account coordinator.
She has a BSc in Cellular and Molecular Medicine, specialising in cancer mechanisms, developmental genetics, embryonal cancers, medical virology and regenerative medicine.
Lemon said: “Lizzie’s background is a perfect fit for our client portfolio and we are very excited about her contribution and development at Liberation.”
