Brand agency The Space People expands in the Leeds market with new premises

Leeds-based multi channel brand agency, The Space People has announced the appointment of two new non-exec directors and a new city centre office to aid its growth and expansion.

Jeremy Longley, serial online entrepreneur and CEO of Betex, joins Alexander Viscount Frankenstein, a Hedge Fund owner and manager on the board of The Space People. Collectively they will support by bringing financial investment and business expertise and acumen to assist in achieving the long term aims and vision of the agency.

Over the next 12 months, the agency plans to invest in developing its existing team, recruiting new talent to serve its growing client base and is also on the lookout to acquire agencies to enhance its existing skills and client portfolio. The acquisition of a digital agency is high on the agenda.

Richard Groom, founder and managing director, said; “This is a really exciting time for the business. Our new city centre space will allow us the room to grow and is also perfectly located and close to all the transport links to help us serve our national and international client base easier.

“I am also delighted to welcome Jeremy and Alexander to the board of directors – their wealth of experience will be instrumental in us taking the business forward.

“We have extremely aggressive growth plans in place and the next year is set to be one filled with many exciting changes.”

The Space People’s multi-channel approach is supported by Sensory Space, its bespoke research tool which approaches insight generation of any given customer experience in a unique way that has benefitted major brands The Space People work with.

It’s portfolio of clients includes Absolut, Wrigley’s, Malibu, Arla Foods, Jameson, Samsung and the National Trust.
