Digital Marketing Executive

Currently studying for her Digital Marketing degree at Chichester University, Mia is with us for a fixed period to experience agency life, and put her marketing knowledge to use in practice. Mia hit the ground running and is a valuable member of the Growth Animals team.

Mia is a fantastic self-starter, getting stuck into all areas of marketing and supporting the team to deliver great work for our clients. Just like Mia’s polar bear animal profile, Mia is strong and determined, and very dependable.

Throughout our time together, we have become increasingly focused on the ‘why’ behind the brands we work on, and that’s why you’ll see our personal values shining through in everything we do:

We are a tenacious bunch, determined to help you achieve your goals but also support you to make a difference for your customers and create a wider positive impact with your business.

We believe life is too short to take oneself too seriously, and as creative people, not only will we help you grow, you’ll be having a bit of fun along the way.

We know that some marketing approaches aren’t always ethical, which is why we hold ourselves and our clients to account, question the status quo and ensure the most ethical practices are used.
