SAN FRANCISCO — On the heels of rapid growth, Golin has expanded its technology team with six new hires, including Saeed Zaman to oversee the agency’s digital offerings.

Zaman joined Golin as senior VP of digital, a new role at the agency. He brings roughly 20 years of experience working in digital marketing. For most of the last three years, he was a VP in Porter Novelli's digital practice in Toronto.

Zaman reports to Matthew Lackie, who leads Golin’s global technology practice and San Francisco operation.

Golin’s new tech hires also include VP Alexis Harrison, who joined from IBM, and director of strategy Jenna Galbreath, who joined from WE Communications. Associate analyst Ashley Jaspers, digital community lead Lena Howard and lead designer Anara Askar have also joined the agency in newly created roles.

The technology team expansion comes after a year of rapid growth for the practice, which included its hub, Golin’s San Francisco office, doubling in size.  Logitech, Wavemaker Labs and Monogram Orthopedics are among its recent new client wins.

“Technology is fueling change across the globe at a rapidly accelerating pace, and that change is felt by everyone,” Lackie said. “This movement is creating incredible opportunities for our clients to showcase their role in creating meaningful change, solving problems and moving us forward. The strengthening of our team allows us to stay on the front foot of a rapidly evolving world and deliver impactful thinking that allows our clients to stay connected to business, society and culture.”
