J B Cole Partners with Marketing and PR consultancy Toast

Transformational digital technology agency J B Cole has appointed Julia Mitchell (of Toast PR) as its new marketing partner.

Julia will be overseeing the company’s marketing strategy and development; whilst also focusing on the implementation of day-to-day creative, social and digital content supported by the company’s in-house marketing team.

Founded ten years ago by brothers and founders, Josh and Ollie, J B Cole and their teams in Manchester and London transform businesses through technology and innovation with clients including Morris Homes, Nokia, The National Trust, Transport for London and ITV.

Josh Bolland, CEO said “Toast’s extensive experience, led by Julia Mitchell brings many valuable insights and expertise to J B Cole. With Julia onboard, we have secured the last piece of the management puzzle. Now represents a critical turning point for our agency as many of our clients (old and new) are navigating their way through once-in-a-lifetime challenges. Marketing what we do well, has never been more crucial. I am very much looking forward to seeing Julia accelerate our message sharing and growth.”

Toast, headed by Julia Mitchell is a PR and marketing consultancy based in Manchester. The agency works across both B2C and B2B sectors with clients in the latter having recently included Deloitte Digital and MediaCity’s technology accelerator, The Landing.

“I’m incredibly excited to be part of JB Cole. We started working together during lockdown and it’s been unusual starting a working relationship over Microsoft Teams but there’s a positive buzz in the company and a lot of passion for marketing, already. With the team and strategy we have in place – I truly believe we will develop a fantastic working relationship both virtually and when the time comes, face to face” said Julia Mitchell.

“One of our first undertakings will be assisting J B Cole with the release of a whitepaper which looks at the future of business in the world beyond Covid-19. It will be a valuable piece of content for J B Cole’s community and the industries they support and we are looking forward to helping them amplify this.”
