Brand and communications agency, Agent, has recruited eight new people across its creative and digital teams

Liverpool brand and communications agency, Agent, has grown its creative and digital teams by eight new members.

Joining Agent’s creative team is senior graphic designer, Sara Collazo, who brings with her eight years of experience, having previously worked for global agencies in Mexico and Spain, including BBDO Mexico.

Also joining the creative team are two new motion designers, including 3D animator, Matthew Tebbutt, previously of AO.com. Three new recruits join the agency’s digital team as web developers with two taking the step of relocating to Liverpool from London and Essex.

As part of its commitment towards supporting the next generation of tech talent, Agent welcomes apprentice web developer, Joshua Oakes, who is currently undertaking training with Code Nation, which will provide him with the programming skills he’ll need to hit the ground running.

Also joining the digital team is UX designer, Teza Simukulwa, to support the agency’s growth aspirations. Teza has been recruited directly from Agent’s sister social enterprise, Agent Academy CIC.

Agent’s chief executive, Paul Corcoran, said: “For the past year, the whole team has really pulled together, working incredibly hard not only to go above and beyond for our clients, but to achieve growth during a difficult time.

“The significant growth that we are now seeing as we mark the 15th year since Agent’s inception is in no small part down to the quality of work that we are producing for our clients, the innovation that we are delivering and the new ideas that we are presenting to them.”
