It has smashed through agency boundaries and recognised early the power of getting the right people around a problem to solve it with creativity. On top of that, I love the down to earth culture of the place and everyone I’ve met there – and being a fellow northerner, the spirit and determination of Goldie. I couldn’t be more excited.” Said Emily Harlock, CSO, The&Partnership, London
