About us
Hello, we are a media planning and buying agency based in Cardiff.
We specialise in delivering results for our clients by getting them the right kind of attention.
Our focus is on results. They can take many forms, from sheer numbers of advert views to changes in audience perception, a return on investment or more visitors to an event, more subscriptions to fewer accidents, the list goes on. The key thing is this; results mean different things to different people, but they mean the world to everyone.
So we listen to what that means to our clients, we figure out how to get them, we research, we plan, we create and we get results. It’s what we do and we do it with a smile.
From our home in Tramshed Tech (and also our actual homes since COVID-19 decided to wreak havoc on the world!), we work with some amazing brands, (or as we like to call them, Attention Seekers), such as Brecon Carreg, Wales Co-operative Centre, Cardiff City Football Club, and Visit Cardiff.
Why are we recruiting?
We don’t recruit often so when we do, we always think carefully about why we are recruiting and the people we look to join our team.
Despite the pandemic, 2020 and 2021 have seen us grow. We have won record amounts of new business and we’re about to make a significant investment into our brand and this is where you might come in!

We’re relaxed as to where the successful candidate is based. We’re looking for someone with the right experience, aptitude, and attitude rather than their location. Remote working is an option (but we’d like to meet up every now and then).
