ALTAR secures half a million in new business & opens Glasgow office

ALTAR Group, Dundee's largest integrated creative agency, has announced an extremely strong start to 2024 with £500,000 of new client wins during Q1.

ALTAR Group comprising design, digital and communication consultancies - Avian, Blue2 Digital and Ginger have added significant new clients to their roster including TSPC, Stargazey Spirits, New Gorbals House Association, Carnoustie Golf Links and JAB Recruitment.

Scott McCallum, Chief Executive, ALTAR Group, said: “Our client growth is exciting and our expansion into the central belt is a significant milestone that not only strengthens ALTAR Group’s presence but also underpins our commitment to our expanding team.

“The agencies continue to deliver exceptional work and most importantly results, for our clients across Scotland, and the rest of UK. A number of our team are Glasgow based and the opening of the office in Charing Cross is an opportunity to foster deeper connections with existing central belt clients, while ensuring we’re at the forefront of design and brand activation.”

As part of ALTAR’s strategic expansion the agency group has announced the appointment of Nial Chapman as Group Managing Director. Promoted from his role in Blue2, Nial's extensive digital and marketing experience positions him as a key asset to lead ALTAR Group into a new era of success. 

Nial Chapman said: "I’ve been with Blue2 and ALTAR Group for over 20 years. Over that time we have evolved significantly in the way we support and fulfil our clients’ growth ambitions. The continual evolution of how we can best deliver results combined with our commitment to creativity, innovation, and client satisfaction aligns perfectly with my vision for the future. I am excited to lead the team and contribute to the agency's continued success."

Expanding its team to a 30 strong workforce, ALTAR Group has already welcomed three new recruits in 2024 and are currently recruiting a further three positions across the company, reinforcing its dedication to attracting the industry's best talent.
