TheAgency, the fast-growing Bath communications specialist, has appointed Matt Rees as planning director. Matt joins from the Bristol office of brand-building, event management, training and PR agency Bray Leino, where he was also planning director.
TheAgency’s first quarter revenue figures showed exponential growth in excess of 300% and partner Amy Stobie said more was to come, adding: “We have a number of new and exciting announcements to make over the coming months.”
TheAgency, now in its fifth year, is regarded as one of the UK’s leading communication outfits, having secured accounts with the AA, Teachers Assurance and, most recently, a global remit with Malta-based online casino heavyweights InterCasino.
Matt, pictured below, said: “I’m delighted to be part of such a fast-growing and dynamic agency, who have made a real impact in such a short period. The agency specialises in integrating campaigns across multiple media channels, strategically, creatively and commercially. TheAgency is a refreshing place to be in that it doesn’t just pay lip service to integration – it is truly integrated, and most importantly built around a digital heart. Understanding and integrating online and offline consumer touch points is essential nowadays. Understanding this is the future of our industry, and I’m passionate about helping to build an agency of the future.”
Amy added: “Matt is an exceptional addition to our team, one of the most experienced brand response planners with a proven track record in the Financial, Travel and Retail sectors. In his time with us, he has already demonstrated business changing results for our clients, and has been instrumental in our recent new business wins.”
