The power of an independent thought.

Independent thought means thinking for yourself rather than blindly following convention. It allows us to focus on what’s best for our clients and for our people.  

We’ve been a champion of transparency in media since we set-up and we were the first agency to adopt ISBA’s agency contract framework. 

We’ve been named Campaign’s Best Place to Work in 2020, 2022 and 2023 and one of the UK's Best Companies to Work For every year for the last 12 years.

Media Planning & Buying

Our planning teams seek out the independent thought that can deliver a distinct approach for our clients and their products. Setting them apart from the category and delivering growth.

Insight & Analytics

We look at human behaviour, what shapes it, and the reason people act in specific ways.  

Analytics drives greater effectiveness, understanding what’s working and mapping robust routes to further growth. 

Creative & Production

Supernova is our fully integrated creative, content, partnerships and production team.

Creating everything from media partnerships and talent & licensing deals to sponsorships and optimised digital content. With three in-house studios we can produce content quickly, effectively and fit for purpose.
