As the curtain comes down on the first quarter (!) of the 21st century, it felt only right to take a moment to reflect on our big year. And it really was a big one. Lots of growth, movement and momentum, and a huge number of milestones worth revisiting. Pretty much par for the course for Collider, the brand experience agency that refuses to sit still.
New gaff, same vibe
So we got a new place! And kept (almost) the same postcode. This summer, we schlepped ourselves all the way around the corner. You’ll now find us at Unit 4, 156 Bermondsey Street, London SE1 3TQ, a stone’s throw from our old stomping ground and still on the same buzzing street that’s fuelled our creativity for years. We’re in love with Bermondsey, and we’re thrilled that its energy (the culture, the characters, the sheer unbridled chaos) will be with us for many more years.
Our new office hasn’t changed who we are: it’s just given us a larger canvas on which to paint. We’re a growing team, so we needed a bit more room to stretch, make, test, rethink, refine, and get even more stuck into the kind of bold experiential work that has become our hallmark. And let’s be honest… the extra space will do wonders for the old creative juices.
Powered by creativity (and coffee)
We Are Collider has always been a passionate and eclectic crew of creative minds. This is obvious the second you walk through the door. You’ll find strategists debating behavioural science, designers quite literally drawing on the walls, producers trying to solve the unsolvable, and an awesome team of account directors, finance experts and senior leaders making sure the ride stays on track.
But what really unites us isn’t job titles, it’s values. At We Are Collider, we pride ourselves on being endlessly curious, big on collaboration, and we stand by what’s right – even when it’s not the easy option. We’re proud of this team. In a world where marketing noise gets louder by the day, it’s our people who keep our work smart, sharp and human. They’re the reason brands come to us not just for ideas, but for impact.
And speaking of growth…
This year, we’ve had some exciting team developments too. We welcomed Josh Denton, our first-ever Associate Creative Director from Havas Play, where he worked on some standout campaigns for EE, blending culture, sport, storytelling, and technology in ways that grabbed attention and earned admiration. He’s already rolled up his sleeves and started pushing us into new creative territory. Campaign thought so too, giving Josh a shoutout in their Movers & Shakers roundup, a nod to his influence and the ambition of this new role.
And while new faces bring fresh spark, nothing beats celebrating the growth of someone who’s been grafting at your side for years. This year, Frankie Stewart-Smith stepped up from Senior Account Manager to Account Director, a move that reflects her leadership, her calm approach to the impossible, and the trust she’s earned across teams and clients alike. Frankie has a rare knack for balancing razor-sharp delivery with a human touch, and her promotion is thoroughly well-deserved and a proud moment for all of us.
Here comes 2026…
If 2025 was about making moves, the We Are Collider plan for the new year is all about momentum. We’re heading into the new year with a bigger space, a stronger team, and more creative firepower than ever. We’re ready to tackle our briefs with curiosity, collaboration and a genuine commitment to creating experiences that actually matter.
So what do we want in 2026? We want more creativity, experimentation, bold thinking and brave ideas grounded in behavioural science. More of the work that shows why brands choose to partner with an immersive marketing agency like us.
