HUB has bolstered its video and digital departments by hiring five new team members.
This move is part of the agency’s wider strategy to expand its service offerings and meet growing client demands.
New Additions to the Video Team
The video team at HUB has seen significant growth with the inclusion of two new video editors, Andy Bland and Rhys Taylor. This is the first time the agency has brought on dedicated editors.
These hires come in response to a surge in client projects, making sure the agency maintains its high standards. With increasing demand for video content in areas like websites and social media, dedicated editors were crucial.
Expansion of Digital Services
HUB also expanded its digital department by appointing Sanjay Purewal as head of SEO, Matt Jones as head of digital PR, and Matt Wilson as a paid media analyst.
Matt Jones’ hire is particularly noteworthy as it marks the first time HUB will offer digital PR services in-house.
Rob Shaw, CEO at HUB, highlighted the importance of SEO and paid media in the overall marketing mix. He mentioned the growing interest from clients in these areas and the consequent need for specialised services.
Client Experience and Expertise
The new recruits bring extensive experience with top brands like Ann Summers, Thortful, L’Oreal, and McDonald’s.
This array of experience is expected to benefit both new and existing clients, enhancing their online strategies and overall marketing efforts.
Additionally, the agency believes that these new team members will provide the necessary support for clients such as Good Move, Drytino, and My Breeches, thereby driving better results.
Shaw’s Strategic Vision
Rob Shaw’s appointment as CEO in November 2022 marked the beginning of a strategic expansion for HUB.
Under his leadership, the agency has welcomed eight new employees in 2024 alone, building on the seventeen hires made in 2023.
Shaw’s strategy includes continuous growth and adaptation to meet evolving client needs, especially in digital and creative fields.
Performance Team Boost
Malcolm Slade was appointed as performance director earlier this year, a move aimed at bolstering the agency’s capabilities.
Now, with three more additions to the performance team, HUB is poised to support more clients in SEO and paid media services.
This focus is designed to transform the digital strategies of their clientele for the better.
In-House CGI Services
Last year, HUB introduced its in-house CGI service, further enhancing its creative offerings.
The addition of dedicated video editors ties into this, as the popularity of video content continues to grow.
Clients can expect the same high-quality service with these specialised resources in place.
Continued Growth
The recruitment spree indicates HUB’s commitment to expanding its service offering and enhancing its capabilities.
By adding specialised roles, the agency ensures it stays ahead in a competitive market.
These strategic hires signify a promising future for HUB’s digital and video capabilities.
The agency’s commitment to growth and quality service continues to drive its success.
