Massive was launched by myself and ex business partner in 2016 because we wanted to become our own bosses and reap the benefits of the hard work we’d afforded to previously employers in the industry for the 6 years of our careers prior.
Now in its 6th year trading and with a team of 4 employees, we pride ourself or creating engaging ads for clients in all kinds of industry verticals to help them connect with and convert prospective audiences into loyal long lasting customers. We also take great pride in our extensive data protection practises and delivering top service to our clients and suppliers alike.

I moved to London at 23 and found an unpaid internship in digital marketing which I completed after 6 months when I accepted my first role as an account executive with the same company.
