Roland Dransfield Founder & CEO Lisa Morton said: “It was a natural decision to open in London as almost 50% of our existing clients are based there and they have made it clear that if we have boots on the ground in the capital they’d be able to extend their scope of work.
“The move fitted in with Maria’s personal plans and it’s worked seamlessly. Our north west clients have found it valuable and are already benefitting from the opportunities that the move presents.
“We are very happy with our decision to expand and it’s been something we have been discussing for a while.
“Roland Dransfield already has a number of new instructions which we will be announcing in the New Year.”
Lisa added: “The restructure and growth over the past 12 months is a direct result of an extremely committed team that lives and breathes the values that are important to us professionally and personally.
“One year ago, we changed ‘PR’ to ‘Purposeful Relationships’, which is what we are known for and what gets us out of bed in the morning. We created the ‘Roland Dransfield Way’, 15 principles by which we live and work. And this has been at the core of the most transformative period in the agency’s history.
“Probably the most important principle we have adopted is ‘plant trees you’ll never see’ – our commitment to create a legacy out of respect for those who follow. It’s about doing much more than just the job in front of us.”
