We did it!! In a year that has highlighted the strength of our team and the vibrancy of our culture, we are beyond thrilled to scoop up both awards we were nominated for at the UK Culture Awards 2025: Best Agency to Work For and Best Culture Transformation Initiative – double win!!
Since Clean Digital was founded in 2012, we’ve always been extremely proud of our culture, embracing a people-first approach that has driven our growth and defined our identity. These awards highlight the dynamic environment that we’ve built over the years – a space where employee wellbeing and professional growth are central to our mission.
The decision to transition to a 100% employee-owned company in 2023 has been transformative for us, kickstarting a brand new chapter for Clean Digital. This change has empowered every team member, embedding a genuine sense of ownership throughout our company. Not only has it enhanced our dedication to client success, but it has also improved staff retention and collective company knowledge via greater operational transparency and inclusive decision making. It has created long-term stability that benefits both clients and team members. We’re extremely proud to have been recognised for our bold approach to culture transformation!

“Having been part of the team both before and after our transition to employee ownership, and now as an elected Trustee Director, I’ve witnessed first-hand how this change has naturally evolved our culture – these awards are the cherry on top!”
– Hannah Pate, Senior Marketing Manager –
Our ability to stand out as the Best Agency to Work For is a testament, not only to our employee-ownership milestone, but also to our cultural initiatives, ranging from flexible working arrangements and wellness benefits to bespoke training programmes. These elements create an environment where creativity and teamwork flourish, ensuring that we remain at the forefront of the PPC sector.
The support and trust of our clients have been essential in our journey. We’re committed to maintaining our path of innovation, excellence and exploring new opportunities, to ensure we maintain long-term stability that benefits both clients and team members. As we look towards the future, we are excited to continue enhancing our workplace culture, ensuring it remains as dynamic and inclusive as ever.

“I anticipated that becoming an employee-owned company would be a monumental shift for us, but witnessing our team’s transformation and being recognised with these prestigious awards has exceeded all my expectations.”
– Rory Young, Managing Director –
We’re thrilled about what we’ve achieved and excited for what’s next. With our people-first approach and strong team spirit, we’re ready to embrace new challenges and opportunities that come our way!
