2024 has certainly seen a busy start to the year for Root Fifty-Two! 

Firstly, we kicked off the year with a bang, making it to the finals of the prestigious Red Rose Awards in not just one, but two categories - Small Business and Design. Our team had a fantastic time celebrating these achievements in Blackpool. 

However, that’s not all we’ve been up to - as we've also added to our ever-growing team, welcoming four new members since January. 

That’s right - four new team members!

Each of these new hires brings a wealth of expertise and insight that is already helping us develop our digital and development service offerings here in the studio. 

At the start of the year, we were thrilled to welcome Joe Penrice to our team. Joe, a seasoned SEO and Google Ads specialist has a wealth of experience in creating SEO strategies and managing marketing campaigns for both international and local companies. He’s a significant asset to our digital marketing team and we’re very excited to have him on board!

Meanwhile, Ella MacDiarmid, originally from New Zealand, joined the team at the beginning of February. Ella brings various skills in digital marketing, print, and account management to her clients and her role as Digital Marketer at Root Fifty-Two. She has a very keen eye for trying new creative ideas and putting them into practice for her clients. We can’t wait to see what she brings to the table over the next few months! 

But if that wasn’t enough, our web development team has also undergone a huge transformation recently. We’re very proud to share that our very own ‘Web Dev Wizard’, Zakria Bilal, has stepped into the role of Lead Developer.

Joining Zakria are two new additions to the development power team. We’ve got Dariusz Swoszowski, our new Web Developer, who brings extensive experience as a full-stack developer with a speciality in CRMs. Meanwhile, Joe Johnson (yes, another Joe!), our new, budding Junior Web Developer, has been developing his programming talents since the ripe age of 17. He started his journey by studying different technical areas, ranging from game development to web development. 

If you can’t tell, we’re very excited about these new additions to the R52 team and can’t wait to see what the rest of the year holds for ourselves and our fantastic clients!
