Company description

We help brands make BOLD MOVES Nowadays, brands want rapid, spectacular growth and they expect media to deliver it. Clients used to give us media briefs that said “deliver 80% awareness” or “give me an impactful Christmas campaign.” Now we hear: “Take me from 4th to 1st in my category” “Help me grow 10% in a market declining 10%” “Make me the most loved brand in my industry” These are huge asks of media, that can’t be met through tweaking the media plan of two years ago. Decades of advertising research prove that without a big change, large brands stay large and small brands stay small. This is why Zenith helps brands make BOLD MOVES. Bold moves are big, brave changes to media strategy, delivering more impact for brands and more value for consumers. They are backed up with a solid forecast – they are a better path to growth and build a partnership – we believe in this approach so much we link our growth to your success. Bold Moves bring bigger ROI This approach works for our clients, our people, and consumers – it’s why we are recognised as the UK’s best media agency. Our Commitment At Zenith UK, we believe that fostering an inclusive culture where all talent can thrive makes our company stronger. It enables a greater idea exchange, which fosters innovation and creativity, and enriches our perspective. We are committed to Publicis Groupe’s wide variety of talent engagement and inclusion programming, and encourage our people to take an active role in continuing to drive positive change within our agency.
