What this factsheet does not know
- How good the work is. Figures do not measure creativity, strategy or chemistry.
- How the client portfolio is spread. Concentration is not in the accounts.
- Freelancers and subcontractors are not in the FTE figures. An agency with 40 staff may in practice run with 70 people.
- This agency files an abbreviated or micro scheme and therefore publishes no staff data. Seniority, turnover and hourly level cannot be derived. This is entirely legal and says nothing about quality.
- The figures cover financial year 2024, filed on 29/08/2025. At a fast-moving agency reality today may differ.
