Media is one of the UK’s most diverse and exciting sectors. In a constantly evolving landscape, creativity, content, and client service are key. Management teams have to stay on top of their game to deal with a range of challenges – everything from skills shortages to retaining a company culture while scaling at speed.

We support ambitious management teams across all sub-sectors – from film, TV and broadcast to advertising, PR, marketing, events, and gaming. There are many routes to growth, from expanding into new territories to acquisitions that complement company cultures.
