Digital Northern Powerhouse Takes on More Talent

Mediaworks, one of the leading independent digital agencies in the UK has expanded its teams across both their Newcastle and Leeds offices. This wave of growth follows significant new business wins and a long-term strategy to further support the public sector with their Digital Transformation initiatives. 

The growth comes at a time when Mediaworks are capitalising on the momentum of high-profile client wins, with prestigious brands such as British Council, Gateshead Council, Odeon, Vet Partners, Travis Perkins, and Lumo selecting Mediaworks as their digital partner.  

These wins have driven demand for expanded capacity within the agency, leading to a dedicated effort to recognise existing and bring fresh talent to both Newcastle and Leeds offices.  

The agency has also promoted a few high performing individuals across the business. These promotions are testament to the talent already in the agency and provides opportunities to grow a career in a successful digital agency. 

The new appointments over the past three months in Social, SEO, Client Services, Sales, Strategic Planning, Digital PR (DPR), Project Management, Innovation, and the Performance Marketing teams reflect Mediaworks’ commitment to supporting both the recruitment of regional talent and delivering best-in-class digital expertise to their clients. 

“We’re thrilled to be recognising the talent we have within the agency as well as bringing in new recruits to help with the next phase of growth in both our Newcastle and Leeds offices” said Brett Jacobson, CEO of Mediaworks. “Our new recruits are not only a response to the increased demand from our growing client roster but also a reflection of our commitment to creating jobs and supporting the economies in the regions we operate in. Each new team member will play an important role as we continue our mission to deliver innovative digital solutions and measurable results.” 

This expansion is part of Mediaworks’ broader strategy to strengthen its regional presence and invest in people, creating meaningful employment opportunities and developing expertise within the local digital ecosystem. With its increased footprint, Mediaworks is well-positioned to continue its growth trajectory, delivering impactful digital transformation for brands across the UK.
