Leeds-based digital marketing agency Modo25 has been on a hiring spree as its Google Premier Partner status is renewed for the second consecutive year for 2025.
The Google recognition places Modo25 in the top three per cent of Google Partners in the UK, despite competing as an independent agency alongside much larger firms.
The four new recruits will strengthen the already established SEO, affiliates and sales teams in the business, bringing a combined 33 years of experience to enhance the agency’s position as a leader in Leeds’ digital space.
Modo25 is pleased to welcome Louise Hudson as SEO account manager and Kamila Shanazarova as SEO & content outreach executive. Both bring a wealth of agency experience, after spending five years each at Kinesso, formerly StickyEyes, working on clients such as Adobe, Honda and Norton Finance.
In their new roles, they will strengthen the SEO team to devise comprehensive organic search strategies, write content, outreach for links and provide technical recommendations for clients. Hudson said; “I’m excited to join Modo25 and continue to develop content SEO strategy for clients while honing my skills and diversifying my portfolio.”
In addition, Shweta Darshane has joined the team as an affiliate account manager from EssenceMediacom. Bringing over three years of experience to the company, Darshane has previously worked across various industries, including clients such as Pentland Brands, Butlins and Warner Leisure Hotels. She joins the team to manage a range of affiliate programmes to create and run affiliate strategies, recruit new publishers to drive growth, negotiate exposure and monitor performance on behalf of clients.
Andrew Sherwin is the most recent hire, joining the senior team at the agency’s award-winning SaaS platform ASK BOSCO as senior business development manager. Sherwin will help bring on new clients across the board for both the SaaS product and agency services.
Sherwin has a 20-year strong SaaS sales background, previously working at Signal Ai and The Curve consulting. He said: “I am buzzing to be joining the Modo25/AB team! The team are awesome, the product is groundbreaking. All my background just feels right for what we do, and I believe that I have a lot to offer to help us grow.”
John Readman, founder and CEO of Modo25 and ASK BOSCO, added: “We’re excited to welcome Louise, Kamilla, Shweta and Andrew to the Modo25 and ASK BOSCO teams. Each bring a wealth of experience, fresh perspectives and great ambition that align with our growth visions for the agency and SaaS product at an exciting time for us.
“Being recognised as a Google Premier Partner for the second year in a row is an incredible milestone for Modo25. Achieving this status is no small feat, particularly for an agency of our size. It reflects our team’s dedication, expertise, and commitment to delivering exceptional results.
