Purplex strengthens team with eight new appointments
Posted on 20/11/2017
Purplex, the leading full-service marketing agency, has continued its rapid expansion with the appointment of eight new team members in the space of just three months.
Purplex’s team now totals over 60 employees. Last year, the agency moved to a new 5,000 sq. ft building just outside Bristol and these new appointments will help the company to reach their goal of growing to 100 employees by 2018.
Andrew Scott, the agency’s Managing Director, comments on his team’s expansion:
“At Purplex, investment in our own growth translates to an investment in our clients’ success. We’re dedicated to providing our customers with the best service possible and, for us, that means acquiring great talent and developing a team large enough to cope with the increasing demands of the sector.”
The new appointments were made throughout the business: James Phillips has become Head of Campaign Delivery, having previously gained experience as a Digital Marketing Editor; Anna Busby has joined Purplex as Customer Services Manager after working as Client Services Manager for Talking Talent; Lucas Courtney previously worked as a Digital Content Producer and is now an Account Manager at Purplex.
Ed Frater also moved to Purplex from Safestyle and has become an Account Manager; Rosie Best will be drawing on the skills gained during her Cambridge University English degree in the role of PR Copywriter; and Alex Bennett – a marketing graduate from Cardiff Metropolitan University and finalist at the Future Marketer of the Year Awards – joins as Purplex’s Marketing Executive.
Purplex has also expanded its online marketing division: Laura Trowbridge was recently appointed Head of SEO, Content and Social and, after graduating from UWE with a degree in journalism (and following a brief stint as a butcher!), Adam Pyke became Purplex’s Online Advertising Executive.
“I’m delighted with how all of our new team members are fitting in at the office”, continues Andrew.
“Everyone at our agency is dedicated to helping businesses in the construction industry achieve their full potential and I firmly believe that, in our new team members, we have found a group of people who share this commitment.”
Purplex Marketing was founded in 2004 by Andrew Scott, who previously worked in a number of successful businesses in the building products and home improvement sectors. Since its establishment, Purplex has grown by at least 34% every year and now boasts a large clientele of customers located throughout the UK and Europe.
