World-leading audio branding agency PHMG is investing in its growth – opening new office space in Manchester and Leeds, and creating hundreds of opportunities for talented new staff.
Based in Old Trafford since 2002, the company’s Manchester HQ overlooks two world-renowned stadiums located at heart of the area’s exciting regeneration. They already occupy four different floors of Oakland House, and have now moved into the 6th floor of the building too. This expansion has added 11,000 square feet dedicated to the Creative and North American Client Care teams – representing a huge investment in our product and service.
This space has been designed with its people in mind. Featuring calming colours, lush greenery and collaborative breakout areas, it’s welcoming in every way – perfect for staff to return to after so much time working from home.
Global Creative Director Tom Heaton explains the design aesthetic: “With the design, we’ve developed an environment that’s supportive to work, but really feels like home. Natural tones, features and materials give a relaxing sense of openness, and we’ve considered every detail to create a space that’s vibrant, inspiring and inviting. This is a bold new direction for our interior design, and it’s a seed that’s set to blossom across every one of our offices.”
A little further from home, PHMG’s expansion has crossed the Pennines too. Following in the prestigious footsteps of Channel Four, they’ve opened a new satellite Sales office at Number One Leeds. This waterfront location boasts excellent transport links and access to the vibrant city centre – and the company will share the space with the likes of Sky and the Yorkshire Post.
Both of these additions give PHMG the room they need to grow. The company continues to expand by welcoming new clients across North America, opening up exciting opportunities within every division. Over the next 18 months, 200 new roles are set to be created – 50 in Leeds, and 150 in Manchester.
As CEO Grant Reed points out, it’s a very important time for the business: “PHMG is well and truly in growth mode. We’re investing in our staff, our office space and the exemplary service we deliver to our clients – which is setting us up for a strong future.”
Established more than 20 years ago in 1998, PHMG has grown to become a global industry leader – creating inspiring audio productions for 36,000 clients across every industry sector.
