Our new Strategy Director

We're excited to announce we've appointed Polly Lygoe as Strategy Director. Joining our Senior Management Team, Polly will head up the Strategy & Creative department, tasked with helping define and grow our own strategic offering and deploying our skills in order to shape our clients' strategy.

Having spent much of her career in independent digital agencies; building and nurturing growing teams; and working as a strategic partner to clients, Polly is well-placed to support us in our own ambitious plans. Her focus on brand and customer experience, in particular, makes her a good match for our direction and growth plans.

"Polly's proven track record of helping lead digital strategies through a combination of planning and strategy techniques, as well as business, market and consumer insight will really benefit Catch in growing our strategic capabilities for our clients."

Jonathan Smith, Managing Director

"I consider this a bit of a return to my spiritual home. I'm thrilled to be joining a brilliant group of people at such a strong independent digital agency. I'm keen to capitalise on the strong creative & strategy grounding to help excel the agency and broaden our remit to ensure that our work is purposeful and drives impact"

Polly Lygoe, Strategy Director

Econsultancy Top 100 Agency

We’re proud to announce that we feature in Econsultancy’s Top 100 Digital Agencies Report.

The Econsultancy Top 100 report is an independent overview of the most significant digital agency players in the UK. The report lists the top 100 Digital Marketing, Design and Build, Technical and Creative Agencies ranked based on their total UK fee income from digital marketing.

Quick stats at-a-glance;

23rd in agencies a decade old
53rd in independently owned agencies
57th in "full service and marketing” agencies
98th of all UK digital agencies on the list

Founder and Managing Director Jonathan Smith commented; "All credit to the team for our debut on the Top 100 list. We're significantly punching above our weight as an agency of around 30 people to be featured alongside big consultancies Accenture Interactive, SapientRazorfish and IBM, and large digital shops like DigitasLBi, AKQA and Zone.

We think of ourselves as small but perfectly formed, and Econsultancy bill the list as 'the definitive listing of the UK's largest digital agencies'. With Accenture Interactive in the top spot with £284,660,000 of UK fee income, it's little surprise Catch comes in at #98 overall!

With so much incredible work in the pipeline, multiple DADI nominations, and significant pitch wins recently with Worldpay and Watford FC, I’m looking forwards to the coming year with our fantastic team".
