Quality over quantity
Engage Comms is an award-winning, Yorkshire-based, B2B marketing communications consultancy established in 2012. From a background in traditional PR and comms, our experienced, digitally-savvy team combines strategic thinking with research skills and creativity to deliver quality outcomes over the long term.
We are
Curious
‘Geeks’ by nature; we’re genuinely interested in what you do and we spot the opportunities and stories others miss.
Outcomes-driven
Award-winning; we measure what we do according to the quality of outcomes, not the quantity of outputs so that every penny you invest delivers a tangible return on investment.
Future Gazers
Agile and innovative; we think long term about our own business and yours and keep on top of the latest developments in your sector and ours.
People-people
Not just techies sat behind desks, we take the time to understand your people and business from the inside out and we know how to engage your audiences.
Yorkshire born n bred
Down to earth, straight-talking, authentic and often underestimated; we get the job done and don’t do things by ‘alves.
Working with us
When you partner with Engage Comms Ltd, you don’t just get marketing support—you gain Marketing Communications Director‑level expertise combined with the resources of a full‑service marketing department.
We’re not an “agency” in the traditional sense, nor are we freelancers. Instead, we offer the best of both worlds: the strategic oversight and accountability of senior in‑house leadership, alongside the flexibility and breadth of skills you’d expect from a dedicated external team.
That means you can rely on us to deliver clear strategy, creative execution, and measurable impact—without the compromises.
