Your company’s key assets are your people – the creative powerhouse that drives your business.
So, if you suffer from high levels of employee disengagement and staff turnover, it seriously affects the bottom line.
In the UK, the average staff turnover rate is around 15%, but in creative industries such as Digital Marketing, it can be as high as 30%.*
Disengaged teams, poor retention, and the inability to attract motivated individuals are deeply affecting the growth of your company.
Did you know that getting a recruit up to speed takes on average 28 weeks? Or that the average cost per hire is £3,000?**
That’s huge amounts of time and money flowing out of the business, year-on-year.
We help creative enterprises to attract the best people and keep them – working as part of happy, productive teams who are aligned to the goals of the business and fully on board with your growth plans.

“Dave’s company supercharged Opodo’s UK Benefits whilst I was Head of Human Resources at Opodo. He and his team were always receptive, professional, and Dave delivered regular benefit presentations to engage the leaders at Opodo, which I know were greatly received. His team worked closely with the Opodo HR team to ensure regular review and competitive benchmark of the company’s UK Benefits.
Dave has an ability to form close bonds with people. He is friendly, knowledgeable in his field and I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Dave to others.”

How we create happy teams
To improve staff retention and slow down employee churn it’s essential to build what we call a ‘Talent Magnetiser’ – an employee value proposition (EVP) that helps you stand out in a crowded or selective candidate marketplace so you can build and retain a loyal team.
It makes candidates think: “I would love to work for you!” and existing staff say: “There’s nowhere else I’d rather be!”
Companies that create this buzz are 20 per cent more likely to outperform their competitors and 4.5 times more likely to retain their best employees.
