WOMMA

Simon John

Strategy Director

 

Simon has worked on more hair product brands than is healthy for the alpha male of the company.

He does however provide clear direction and infallible understanding of our clients’ strategic direction and objectives and is responsible for our multi-discipline partnerships, as well as the strategic delivery of individual projects.

Carli Jones

Client Services Director

 

Carli almost invented Facebook. She lives and breathes social media & virtual association but she's also pretty handy at client relations. Come and meet us for a drink and you'll see. Responsible for the operational delivery and strategic direction of key client accounts, Carli is never out of contact. Test her.

Tim Vaines

Head of Technology

 

Tim is a technical genius. He's also an innovator and a creative but is, at heart, a hard-core technologist who can deliver vision with pragmatism, to deliver world-class digital solutions in line with clients’ key business requirements. He can make data look sexy, enough said.

Dr Gemma John

Head of Social Research & Anthropology

 

Is there a Doctor in the room? Yes. Gemma holds a PhD in social anthropology. Fiercely intelligent, Gemma applies innovative thinking and scientific research methodologies to align on and offline customer insight with the ever changing needs of media stakeholders and their customers.

Roost's Values

The easy bit with starting Roost was deciding that there was a better approach to digital that benefits both the client and the audience. The difficult and slightly more daunting task was coming up with the name that represented this and more...

Roost was organic by name and nature. Born out of various farmyard themes, we knew we wanted the brand to be inherently 'earthy' while at the same time encapsulating the essence of our offering: 'ground up'

‘Roost’ came to us while on an early morning scoot through London. It seemed to fit with our outlook of setting up an agency based in the countryside while encompassing the very heart of what we wanted to achieve for our clients - a fresh, clean and organic approach to digital communications, with something key at the core: the audience.
