Red-Fern Media welcomes 2022 with two new starters

With a new year comes fresh starts, and for Red-Fern Media, this means welcoming two brand new members of the team, Sam Duckworth and Al Davies.

Sam joins the Burnley-based technology and growth marketing agency as a specialist UI/UX designer, having previously worked at software development company, Blue Wren, for several years.

Sam will help to drive the company’s UI/UX design capabilities forward, allowing for more complex and bespoke built digital products and platforms, which Red-Fern is seeing more and more of. Sam will work closely with Creative Director, Alex Heeney, developing innovative ideas for clients and taking a lead on multiple projects.  

Creative director Alex said: “Technology is changing rapidly and we need to keep up-to-date with any new and emerging developments. Sam comes with a wealth of experience in UI/UX design, and her previous software development experience will bring a new perspective to our clients’ briefs.”

Al joins as Marketing Manager for the agency, bringing almost a decade of agency experience to the team. Al will drive the marketing offering at Red-Fern, managing the team as a whole and developing exciting strategies and campaigns for clients.

Head of client services Luke Rossall said: “Al is a great fit for the business, with the perfect character and personality to fit in with our culture. She brings a lot of experience from previous roles and has a broad skill-set, which will help the team grow.”

Managing director Sean Redfearn added: “We’re ecstatic to have two new members of the team start at the beginning of 2022. It sets a precedent for the coming year, allowing us to bring on even more projects and watch our clients flourish. I’m looking forward to seeing Sam and Al make their mark on the Red-Fern brand.”

Sam and Al join the company at a fantastic time, after the agency recently won the ‘Marketing Agency Award’, sponsored by Peter Scott Printers, at the Red Rose Awards in November 2021.
