Yorkshire creative agency Rise at Seven, is expanding its London presence with the opening of a base in Shoreditch.
The Sheffield company, which counts the likes of PrettyLittleThing, PlayStation, House of Fraser and Parkdean Resorts among its clients, was only founded in June 2019 by Carrie Rose and Stephen Kenwright, and it already employs 110 people.
Now, following on from the recent expansion to Manchester after seeing 190% growth year on year, the agency is creating new jobs in London, having already taken on 15 employees at the new London office.

The agency, which offers its services in Germany, Spain and The Netherlands, has been expanding its head office but expects to reach capacity quickly, triggering the Shoreditch expansion, to get access to a whole new talent pool of creatives and digital talent.
The new office expansion comes straight after a recent win as agency of the year at The Drum Awards for Digital Industries, and the addition of 25 new clients in the last three months, including Tough Mudder, Boohoo & BoohooMAN and Justmylook.
Will Hobson, PR and London director said: “I am absolutely thrilled to announce that we are expanding our London office to a new space in Shoreditch. After remote working for the past two years it’s amazing to be going back to the office and creating a perfect space that fits our culture.
“Being together is essential for personal development in our agency and our new space will set us up for our next round of growth.”
Earlier this year company boss Carrie Rose appealed to young people to take a year out from university and join the firm – which already offers perks that include free holidays and a bar in its offices – pledging to refund the costs of their accommodation if they do so.
