What a year we’re having at Arke HQ! From moving to a snazzy new office to growing our team, we’ve had a whirlwind of a time – in the best possible sense.
Now, for the even sweeter news – our work has been recognised in Europe, having won a European Paid Media Award for Local Campaign of the Year!
First, we won the UK Search Award in November 2021 for Best Use of Search – Third Sector/Not for Profit. Then, we hit another home run, winning the UK Social Media Award for Best Low Budget Campaign in early September.
Now, we’re European Paid Media Award winners too! Our work on the Living Wage campaign with Brighton Chamber has taken home the Local Campaign of the Year title.
Our founder Steph Noble commented on the achievement, saying:
“Winning our third award in such a short space of time is a testament to the dedication and expertise of our team. We’re still a growing team, but we have the biggest drive and passion, leaning on each other to make sure our campaigns are executed to go above and beyond our clients’ expectations. Ever since our UK award wins, I’ve dreamed of us being recognised beyond the UK for our knockout results, and now we are. Now, we’re dreaming of going global, and I know the team has what it takes to take Arke there!”
Not only is this win a result for us at Arke, but a major win in the bid to increase the number of living wage employers in our local community. Since we partnered with Brighton Chamber on this campaign, 58 more businesses in Brighton and Hove pledged to increase their wages to the Living Wage figures.
By winning this campaign, we hope to further spread the living wage message to more businesses than ever before – not just in our local area but in our wider community too. We’re passionate about people, and we’re so aware of the importance of increasing wages, especially amid the cost-of-living crisis.
What’s next for Arke?
We continue to expand our team, with a couple of new Arkenauts due to join us soon. We’re also keeping the momentum up on the awards front, with a few more entries already submitted and more in the pipeline for upcoming awards – so keep an eye out for the results of those!
We can’t wait for our team to get even more recognition for the amazing work they’ve been producing for our clients.
