Communications group Social has reported an increase in turnover to £3.4m for the latest financial year.
The group, which was founded in 2013 with offices in Manchester, Leeds, Bristol and Liverpool, said its performance has resulted in a 38% annual increase in profitability.
In 2021, the group established a number of new divisions which includes Social Net Zero, a dedicated climate change communications consultancy; Social Tech Communications, which supports technology businesses; Social Invest, which specialises in Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG) consulting.
Alongside an office serving Merseyside, Lancashire and Cumbria and launching dedicated creative consultancy for the curious, the Manchester-headquartered group also increased its total headcount to 50.
John Quinton-Barber, founder and group CEO of Social, said: “I’m beyond proud of the performance we’ve achieved over the past year. To enter new specialist sectors during a pandemic and take on new team members remotely was a real risk. But we backed ourselves and the team has delivered brilliantly.”
