During her tenure, Alison oversaw a complete global rebrand of the company, implementation of a go-to market strategy and 1Spatial’s growth into new sectors and markets – forging key partnerships globally.

Having delivered B2B marketing campaigns with and for Alison for some of the world’s largest companies over the years, I’ve come to know and admire her incredible business and marketing acumen and am very excited about the next steps in our journey.”

Alison Masters commented: “Silver’s impressive integrated offer, talented team and relentless focus on delivery is something I’ve always admired, so the opportunity to join and play a part in shaping its future was one I couldn’t miss. I’m looking forward to bringing a fresh perspective to Silver by drawing on my client-side experience of working alongside agencies to build global brands. I’m hugely excited to be joining the agency at this pivotal time.”
