What else we offer
on top of your wage

35.5 hour working week

Our week is much lower than the national average so that you have an extra 234 hours per year for yourself.

State-of-the-art coffee machine

An agency can't market on cake alone, it needs plenty of coffee too. Our free barista-quality machine does everything from espressos and Americanos to mochas and cappucinos. But if you can taste difference between a cafe au lait and white coffee, you're more of a coffee snob than some of our current lot.

Free, healthy breakfasts EVERY DAY

We think it's vital to start the day properly so free fruit and breakfast items are available for everyone to enjoy.

Early finish Fridays EVERY WEEK

We’ve found that an early finish offers plenty of opportunities to socialise together and get our weekends started early.

An extra day’s paid holiday per year

You start with more than national minimum, then for every year you remain part of our team, you’ll earn an extra day’s annual leave.

Employee of the Month awards

Each month, our team votes for two of their peers to win a coveted spin of the prize wheel. Prizes range from £500 cash to an extra day’s holiday or chippy lunch for the rest of the team.

Personal learning and development plans

The only way to stay at the forefront of our industry is to be continuously learning, so that’s why training time is scheduled into every team member’s week and every team member has their own personal training plan.

Weekly five-a-side

Each week, two teams from the office compete in a friendly five-a-side football game, paid for by Digital 22.

Training course attendance

From project management training to Brighton SEO, budget is put aside to allow our team to attend relevant training courses in the UK.

Cake. Lots of it

Somebody’s birthday? Cake. Visited a client abroad? Cake. We haven’t had cake for a bit? Cake.

Team ‘Level 10’ meetings

We follow the EOS business plan and have rolled out the weekly Level 10 meeting structure to the individual teams within Digital 22. These are owned and driven by the team, not the management, and is your chance to talk about and improve your experience at work.

Quarterly staff NPS surveys

Every quarter, we ask the team what could be done to make their working experience better. This feedback is then discussed and actioned by our leadership team in their meeting each Monday.

Yearly in-depth staff feedback (we scored +62% in 2018, triple what's normally considered a great score)

Annual feedback is also collected and this helps shape the strategic direction of the company for the coming year.

Access to educational materials

Everybody in the team has access to a wealth of professional training materials and certifications to complete online.

All-expenses-paid visits to Boston for the INBOUND conference

Every year, we take a group of the team over to the USA for the annual INBOUND conference in Boston.

Table tennis

Because if a marketing agency doesn't have a table tennis table, can it really call itself a marketing agency?

Supportive HR department and leadership team

Our HR Coordinator and leadership team are there to offer support and guidance whenever needed.

Free booze

But we also enjoy a drink together after work. That's why we have an industrial-size fridge stocked up with lagers, craft ales and spirits. Obviously, we also have soft drinks for non-drinkers and those who are driving.

Free pool table and games consoles

Located inside a restored Victorian cotton mill, our office is packed with flexible working spaces, games consoles, a bar and there’s a gym on-site.

Free 'paid for' car parking

Nearby car park permit is provided to all staff and this gives free parking across the Ribble Valley, all year round.

Regular work social events

Digital 22 takes every opportunity to celebrate. If we have a big success with a client, then it’s only right that we mark the occasion together.

Themed fun-days in the office

We regularly host office games and competitions. Whether it’s a summer of Office Olympics, a pub quiz or the Digital 22 Bake Off, there’s always friendly competition and prizes on offer.

Pension contribution

Although we have a young workforce, we know it’s important to plan for all of our futures. That’s why we offer pension contributions 3x the minimum requirement.

Full transparency across the business

We believe that being open about where the company is heading, what the goals are and how we expect to get there is only fair. We hold quarterly team updates on how the business is doing financially and strategically. The leadership team also have an ‘ask me anything’ mentality.

And we pay you

Plus, we think it’s only right that year on year, if you’re doing more senior work and have more responsibilities then your salary is adjusted accordingly.

Why our team enjoy working at Digital 22:

”The team are amazing and everyone is a pleasure to work with. I've had a lot of support from my manager, and my knowledge and confidence have grown. I typically work on a variety of tasks so a day is never the same.”

Employer of the year Our culture’s award-winning.

We have a work hard, play hard mentality.
The entire team, from content marketers and strategists to designers and developers, is determined to produce the best work possible for all of our clients. As a reward for everybody’s continued success, the company wastes little time in celebrating both small and big wins.

No celebration is ever really the same here, which is a good thing. From drinks in the bar downstairs to that time the company even flew everybody out to Dublin for the weekend after winning HubSpot Partner of the Year into our culture, take a look at our Culture Code which the team all shaped.

 

It's not just celebrations either. The company went above and beyond to provide us with a game-changing workspace - going well over the planned budget to give us an office we're proud of.

And, on top of all these perks, everyone is given the chance to learn new skills, take on new challenges and work with as much autonomy as possible. If you’re a self-starter who wants to develop personally in a high-activity environment, take a look at our current vacancies back at the top of this page. If you want a bit more insight into our culture, take a look at our Culture Code which the team all shaped.

Any essential skills or experience will be listed within the job advert. If you have any questions regarding this, please contact us via the form below.

It's useful to have them just in case but they’re not needed immediately. If we need to get in touch with a referee then we'll contact you.

We're lucky enough to have a large number of applications for our roles so we can’t put an exact timeline on this. We aim to get back to you as soon as possible and ideally within two weeks.

Yes, we’ll be in touch no matter what the outcome is.

If you're a successful candidate, we'll firstly arrange a call for a short chat to find out more about your current situation, experience and what it is you are looking for. Following this, we will then arrange an interview at a time which is convenient for both of us.

The second stage is generally made up of two parts - a second interview and a role specific task. Or, in some instances, we'll run an assessment centre.

We expect you to have taken a look at our website, have done your research on Digital 22 and what we do. Please make sure you bring any questions which you would like answered to the interview too.

Wear what you’re comfortable in for an interview.

In short, it’s a lot of fun. Challenging, but fun. Our clients expect a lot but that’s what keeps us on our toes. And our amazing office culture helps make it all so enjoyable.

We have a sort of understanding that joining Digital 22 is like joining a big family. We can all count on each other when the chips are down and can have a laugh throughout whatever’s going on. We also enjoy socialising together before, during and after getting the job done.

The team does it itself with the help of a bonafide culture code document. You can check that out here and read more about our culture on our dedicated culture blog.

We think it’s ace. Absolutely slick. It’s an open plan, agile working environment. It’s got well over 100 places to work but we’ve capped the capacity at 65(ish). It’s also got a fridge full of free drinks, a pool table, table tennis table, XBox, Super Nintendo, music, bean bags and - wait for it - free cereal. And free fruit. And tea and coffee.
