Consultant

Founded by the team who re-defined the way British politics uses digital, Edmonds Elder works with an exciting range of organisations – from disruptive tech startups to established FTSE 100 companies – to transform how digital is used to drive real results.

We are a team of digital and communication consultants and creatives that bring together digital strategy, content creation and paid campaign execution to offer our clients an end-to-end service – and that blends the strategic thinking of a consultancy with the creative execution and agility of an agency.

We’re passionate about the work we do. Our team includes people from political, advertising, agency, charity and creative backgrounds – and we’re growing quickly. We’re currently looking for a Consultant with over 3 years’ experience in a digital role.
