The Buccleuch Group has it’s own in-house team covering all aspects of PR, corporate affairs, marketing and graphic design. The team focus is very much about presenting the many facets of Buccleuch to the outside world.

Close to all areas of the Group, the team is a common link across all that the Group does.

The work of the team includes:
• Group PR and political monitoring
• Press and media relations
• Events and sponsorship
• Graphic Design
• Strategic Marketing

and the team skills mirror this range of activity.

The Buccleuch name is becoming increasingly recognised as a hallmark for quality and businesses operating within the Buccleuch brand family reflect this. The head of the Buccleuch C&M team acts as guardian of the brand values and the strict application of the visual identity.

Managing communications consistently across a Group as diverse as Buccleuch is challenging and includes materials across a wide range of media for example print materials, exhibition stands, advertising and presentations.

The team, through sponsorship activities, does give its expertise from time to time as in-kind support to community groups and other projects.

The introduction of a devolved parliament for Scotland in 1999 added a new dimension to political monitoring. Members of the C&M team are plugged into a wide network of contacts covering the broadest of political spectrums and providing a rounded service to businesses within Buccleuch and to others through representative organisations.
