Remarkable Group climbs 10 places on PR agency league table
The most authoritative analysis of the UK‘s PR industry has ranked Winchester-based Remarkable Group as a top-five agency outside of London.
The communications and public consultation specialist has been listed as one of the PRWeek Top 150 most impressive climbers, achieving number five in the top 10 list of independent agencies outside London, and reaching number 59, a climb of 10 places, in the overall league table across the UK.
The Group has also ranked in the healthcare agency league tables for the first time.
Up 16 places since 2013, Remarkable Group has seen fee income grow from £2.7 million to £3.5m in the past year.
The results, announced on May 7, recognise the ambition of the company which opened regional offices in Manchester, Bristol and Cardiff in 2014, adding to its existing Winchester and London bases.
The Group also acquired Manchester- based Pendragon Public Relations, creating Remarkable Pendragon in November 2014 and in July 2014 launched its content-focused division, Remarkable Content.
It‘s been a good year so far for Remarkable Group with news it has also been shortlisted for Consultancy of the Year in the PRCA DARE awards, recognising communications consultancies in the South West and Wales.
Chief executive Stephen Pomeroy said: ”These are our most successful figures yet and they are testament to the team which consistently goes above and beyond for our clients.
”It is a time of rapid change across the communications industry and we must be adaptable and responsive to meet the demands, and maximise the impact, of digital and social advancements for the benefit of our clients.
”We are reaping the rewards of reinvesting the profits in growth and will continue this investment in staff, the further expansion of our regional network and our clients.”
