Forward Role Strengthen Agency Proposition

Forward Role, the North West’s leading Marketing & Digital recruitment specialist; whose clients include AO.com, Missguided.com and N Brown Group, have strengthened their Agency offering by launching a division dedicated to the sector.

Ian Lenehan has joined the business to head up the new Agency division having previously managed a similar function for Blue Skies. Becky Smith and Helen Colley have also joined from Blue Skies to support the region’s Digital and PR / Events agencies respectively.

“Forward Role’s strong brand and reputation for providing a quality, service led approach to recruitment, means our new offering will lend itself well to the Agency space in the North West” said Ian. “Across the region the competition for talent continues to be one of the biggest challenges facing agency owners and I believe the combination of our team’s knowledge of the sector, and ability to provide an individually tailored approach will ensure we are able to provide our clients and candidates with a unique service in the market”.

Steve Thompson, MD of Forward Role added “moving into the agency sector was an obvious next step for us as we look to build on our position as the largest Marketing & Digital recruiter in the North West. We’re excited about being able to offer a full suite of services for Agency clients across Account Handling, PR, Events, Analytics, Digital, Design and Creative.”
