20 new faces at agency

A MANCHESTER e-commerce and digital agency has grown its team by 20 staff.

The team expansion at Visualsoft has taken place across all three of its offices, including in the city centre, to keep up with its rapidly increasing client list.

From social media executives and digital marketing consultants, to client relationship managers and developers, Visualsoft’s latest additions will contribute towards digital campaigns and improve the online presence of its 1,000-strong retail client base.

The firm believes that with online shopping now equating to £1.1bn each week, it is important for retailers to create a strong digital presence in order to keep up with changing buying trends.

For this reason, the business is busier than ever and welcomes the widespread recruitment drive to help fulfill the rising demand within this sector.

Visualsoft now has a growing team of over 230 staff who specialise in the design, build, support and marketing of online stores for retailers across the UK, including the Lakes Distillery, Montane and Moda in Pelle.

CEO Dean Benson said: “With the e-commerce and digital marketing sector continuing to grow, this is an exciting time for us and one that we can’t wait to share with our new recruits.

“An effective online strategy is becoming increasingly important for retailers and rightfully so, as this has the potential to boost sales and help brands stay ahead of competitors.”
