North East digital marketing agency to double Leeds workforce with expansion drive

A North East digital marketing agency has announced plans to double its Yorkshire operations by the end of the year.

Mediaworks Leeds has announced plans to create almost 20 new jobs after securing £1m of new business.

The team, that launched as part of the 150-strong North East-headquartered digital marketing agency Mediaworks at the start of 2020, has recently added Johnson & Johnson, First Direct, United Utilities and Lil-Lets to its portfolio.

The agency, which has offices in Newcastle, Edinburgh, and London, expanded into Leeds last year and recently announced an expansion of its operations in Scotland, adding five more members to the team in its new Edinburgh office.

Mediaworks CEO and founder Brett Jacobson commented: “The Leeds team has supercharged its growth over the past year, working with some of the UK’s top household names. Its quality brand and creative strategy work has proven an invaluable addition to our current service offering.

“The team’s strategic and creative experience has further added to the strength and phenomenal talent in our business, integrating perfectly with the wider Mediaworks team in Newcastle and now in Edinburgh.

“We know how important Yorkshire is to the UK’s economy and we’re excited to continue to grow our success and presence in the region.”
