What do you do?

What is Motive Agency's story?
Motive Agency was set up 5 years ago with two people and has now grown in that time to a team of over 20. We started by mostly employing mums who had huge experience but needed the freedom to look after their children and were not able to find that flexibility. This was before Covid and the now normal, flexible working.

How many people do you employ?
21

You have won a few awards?
We have been nominated for 17 awards since 2022 both as an agency and for client work.

What is your connection to Chobham?
I have lived in Chobham for 20 years

What campaign or project are you most proud of?
The brand campaign that we produced for Guide Dogs UK.

​​

​​​​​​​​​​​​​​Which campaign from another agency do you most admire"

‘Cost of Beauty’ from Dove in collaboration with various charities ( NGO partners Maudsley Charity, Parenting Mental Health, Global Action Plan, 5Rights, Girlguiding and Beat Eating Disorders) featuring real stories about body appearance and toxic beauty standards.

Also, it was first aired during a Love Island ad break, to add power to the message. The campaign was created by Ogilvy agency

.

What do you most love about your job?
The team that we have at Motive

What are the tough bits?
The staff!

​

What is the best thing a client has said to you?

“You have changed the way we think and

we couldn’t have done that without you” ( Guide Dogs UK)

Your renovation of Bridge House has made such a difference to the appearance of the start of the High Street.​

​

For how long did you have your eye on the property?

I have always thought it was such a shame to see a high street premises in such a state of decline and I really wanted to be in the village so we could support the local businesses. When we grew to an appropriate size to need a larger space, Bridge House was the perfect solution.

What would you say to young people thinking about a career in the creative industries?

Its hard work, fast paced and long hours but it’s incredibly rewarding when you see what a difference you can make, especially in the Charity sector.
 

And finally... what do you love most about Chobham?
The people, I believe that it is one of the friendliest villages that I have been to.
