Join the Dots welcomes international graduates

Manchester-based research agency Join the Dots has taken on a new wave of graduates.

The firm created eight jobs in the third intake of its Join the Dots Graduate Development Programme (GDP), which launched two years ago.

The newcomers have joined from universities in the Greater Manchester area, as well as relocating from Paris, Lyon, Brussels and Frankfurt to join the thriving full-service research agency.

In August, Join the Dots was awarded MRS accreditation as a training provider for its GDP, becoming the first research provider outside London and second overall in the UK to receive such recognition.

GDP manager Tim Griffiths said: “For this intake we were keen to attract graduates with a range of language skills and experience of other cultures, to support the growing number of international clients that we work with.

“The rate of growth at Join the Dots enabled us to recruit more graduates than previously, and we’re already planning for the 2016 intake, for which we are currently accepting applications.”

Elsewhere, Join the Dots has expanded its research team and knowledge base with the addition of Hollie Clark, who previously designed creative strategies for global brands at TBWA.
