Jaywing PLC (LON:JWNG) have today announced the acquisition of social publishing, native marketing and audience first creative agency HeadOfffice. The agency will become part of their Leeds based digital marketing business Epiphany.
HeadOfffice was founded in 2016 by former Epiphany Creative Director, Gaz Battersby and has grown quickly since.
Tom Salmon, MD of Epiphany, commented: “It’s really great to have Gaz back in the fold, both in terms of the top drawer creative skills he and his team will bring to Epiphany and the emerging opportunities in social audience creation and engagement. As Creative Partner, Gaz will oversee all of Epiphany’s creative output and the development of new creative propositions, as well as the further development of HeadOfffice. The addition of the HeadOfffice team to our studio means we have bolstered our creative strength to meet growing demand from a broad range of clients, as well as adding valuable and unique social publishing and amplification experience. All of this makes HeadOfffice a great fit with Epiphany.”
Rob Shaw, Jaywing CEO said: “I’ve known Gaz for many years and I’m really impressed with what he has created in HeadOfffice. We know that the worlds of brand and performance marketing are coming together, with Google and Facebook leading many of those changes that favour brands that connect with their customers. Putting HeadOfffice’s creative excellence and social content alongside what we already excel in across Epiphany means that we’re perfectly positioned to let our clients take advantage of this change.”
