HQ move for marketing company Jaywing

Marketing company Jaywing has seen the opening of its new headquarters, as well as acquiring or developing two more sites in the UK and Australia.

The growing business has moved to Sheffield City Centre following the major redevelopment of a derelict former forge – Albert Works on Sidney Street.

The company said its move had kickstarted a new phase of regeneration in the area by commercial developers and the council that will include a new public walkway along Porter Brook.

In late March the company moved into new Sydney premises, more than doubling the capacity in Australia, and last month listed business Jaywing expanded its Leeds offices with an extension.

Staff will be moved into the extension while the original building is redecorated.

UK & Australia CEO, Rob Shaw said: “We’re setting ourselves up here for a fantastic future in our most strategic locations, all of which are designed around excellent transport links, opportunity for growth and our attractiveness as a major agency employer.

“We’re now well-placed to attract creatives, designers, data scientists, marketers, search and biddable media specialists into both Leeds and Sheffield from the huge pool of talent in the north and beyond and have a number of vacancies available right now. We have both beautiful countryside and thriving social destinations in vibrant cities on our doorstep.

“Both of which have so much to offer, especially those looking for a move out of London, although we have current opportunities there too. This of course extends to Sydney, with the Australian lifestyle, fantastic beaches and extensive waterfront on offer.

“Essentially, we work hard to create exciting, growing agency environments, with lots of opportunities for people to develop into and enjoy globally and these three moves are absolutely a consolidation of that.”
