Welcome to Bind Media!

We are a Bath-based independent agency, collaborating across Paid Media, Performance Creative, CRO and Analytics. 

Our multi-award-winning team helps ambitious businesses push the boundaries of what's possible with paid media.

We are dedicated to putting ‘people first’ and are on a journey to be the best place to grow your career and deliver great client experiences; all whilst being proud of our impact.

We’re growing

Our Paid Media team is hiring and it’s got us thinking about how we can communicate what working life is like at Bind Media. 

We always aim to help candidates identify if our culture is one they feel they can thrive in. 

So we asked Helen, our People & Culture Director, to tell us why she thinks Bind is a great place to build your career. 

Here's what she had to say...

10 Reasons why:

We are a certified ‘Great Place to Work’ as voted for by our team

We proudly ranked 27th among the UK’s Best Workplaces™! A huge shoutout to our incredible team whose anonymous survey responses made this possible. The GP2W survey sets the gold standard and helps showcase that Bind has created a work environment that fosters trust, fairness, respect, and community among the team.

We are a certified ‘B-Corp’

The ‘B’ in ‘B-Corp’ stands for ‘Benefit for all’. Our B Corp Certification was awarded in recognition of meeting high standards of verified performance, accountability, and transparency on everything from employee benefits and charitable giving to supply chain practices and input materials.

We are proud to be part of the ‘End Salary History Campaign’

New job, fresh start, everyone deserves an opportunity to wipe the slate clean.  We’ve teamed up with the Fawcett Society to help break the cycle of pay discrimination by asking our candidates what their salary expectations are, rather than their current pay. This simple, deliberate and specific action, helps end the cycle of discrimination.

We take health seriously, through Vitality 

We are proud to champion a culture that puts both physical and mental health first. We have weekly wellness hours to help us prioritise well-being and access services through our Vitality memberships, which cover everything from talking therapies to expensive dental bills.  In addition to this, we have two trained Mental Health First Aiders, fostering our commitment to breaking the stigma.

We create the change we want to see 

We want everyone to feel welcome at Bind Media and are creating meaningful change to achieve this. We have updated the policies on periods, menopause, and transitioning at work. Our bathrooms are genderneutral - and stacked with free hygiene products! In addition to this Bind Media are Disability Confident and Living Wage Employers. We have committed to our development in this space, launching our DE&I group ‘Allys’ in 2023.

We provide access to industry-leading training 

Whether you want to become a technical specialist or manage a team, Bind Media is great at creating space for this. We invest in online courses through CXL and Simmer. We also use amazing training partners like CharlieHR and Simon Hares at SerialTrainer7. We are committed to helping everyone in a way that works for them, and use anonymous feedback forms to continually grow.

We deliver award-winning work

We had a bumper year, scooping up a whole host of industry awards and accreditations. We proudly obtained 'Small Paid Media Agency of the Year’ at the European Paid Media Awards 2024 (for the second year in a row), the UK Agency Awards for PPC Agency of the Year (Small) and ‘PPC Agency of the Year’ at the UK Digital Excellence Awards 2024.

Lastly, Bind Media has been named a finalist at the Google Excellence Awards 2024 under the ‘Workplace’ category. Even more exciting, we're one of just seven businesses throughout EMEA to make the shortlist this year!

We are giving back to the community

Through Google Grants, our team give their time and marketing expertise to local charities, including Dorothy House and Bath Cats & Dogs Home. We donate up to £1,000 of our first invoice with any client to causes through B1G1, provided £3,440 to United Help Ukraine, and donated £250 to Circus Star.  

In addition to this, our team volunteer day saw us all head to Bath City Farm to build a pathway with stairs to make the farm more accessible.

We celebrate together

Whether it’s our annual company trip, Deliveroo on Fridays or hanging out at a monthly social, there is always time to build meaningful relationships. Our team share their milestones, from new puppies and babies to house moves and engagements. This creates a real sense of community and belonging, with healthy friendships that extend beyond the working day.

We are growing 

‘Well, as Bind Medias’ recruiter, I am probably a bit biased here! But most excitingly for me, we are constantly growing. Our clients come via referral and over the last year this success has led to us increasing our headcount by almost 50%. Growth brings change. At Bind Media, this means opportunities for promotion, developing new services, and welcoming lovely new colleagues into our team.
