THE AGENCY
At december19 we are proud to be different.
We began our journey with a vision of creating an agency where the
focus is on people rather than business greed. We are committed to
making a positive contribution to the advertising world – where
client interests are at the heart of what we do.
december19 is fully owned and self-funded meaning we have the
freedom to make bold decisions. We can be different, and we can
choose our own direction. Although we do like to make a profit, we
love the freedom of being able to do the things we want to do. It
means we can truly focus on what is important to us – and that is people.
Our fundamental ethos here at december19 is to create a place of work that is a far cry from the norm. We understand that without great people, we simply won’t be able to achieve what we set out to do.
