Nikwax announced new hires accompanying its recent North American headquarters move.

Selina Wagner has been hired as content coordinator, responsible for design, photography and video across all channels including print, web, blog, and social media. Selina comes from the University of Florida with a background in marketing, graphic design, and fine art.

Kaelee McCloskey is responsible for retailer support, coordinating staff training and information and managing trade shows and consumer events as its marketing coordinator, retail and events. Kaelee graduated from the University of Washington with experience in business marketing and events.

The hires follow Nikwax’s recent headquarters move to the Ballard neighborhood of Seattle, WA. The new space accommodates staff growth offering a central location for employees to easily commute when working in the office. Improved IT systems and internet capabilities also help boost productivity whether the staff is working from home or the office.

“I’m thrilled to have Selina and Kaelee on board,” said Heid Dale Allen, VP of marketing. “These positions will provide more support to our retail partners while also elevating our messaging and communications. With these two joining the team, I’m proud to note that women comprise over 50 percent of the Nikwax North America team, including key roles in finance, customer service, logistics, and marketing.”
