Pixel Kicks has hired two new team members to join our growing team.

James Knowles has joined the company as a web developer, with his role covering the building of new websites and maintenance of existing ones. He brings experience in various coding languages and CMS, having previously worked at Factory Pattern and Toolkit Websites.

James said: “Pixel Kicks has a great culture and a broad range of clients – both of which really appealed to me. I am now looking forward to kick starting my career into its newest phase.”

Meanwhile Eve Gilbert has been hired as a digital marketing apprentice via The Juice Academy, becoming the company’s seventh apprentice in ten years. Through a previous role in hospitality management she has some experience in social media coordination, and will now work on planning and creating social media and SEO content for clients at Pixel Kicks.

Eve commented: “Having the chance to work at a dynamic digital agency is an exciting opportunity and one that I wasn’t going to pass up. My apprenticeship offers a comprehensive learning experience —covering everything from social media management to SEO. For someone like me, starting fresh without prior industry knowledge, Pixel Kicks is the perfect place to begin my career in digital marketing.”

In other news, Molly Barton has been promoted to the role of digital marketing executive, having completed an apprenticeship with Pixel Kicks.

Commenting on the new hires and promotion, Chris Buckley, MD of Pixel Kicks, said: “It’s fantastic to welcome James and Eve. Both have started to make their mark and are already adding value.

“Since Molly joined us last year, she has thrived and has become an integral and respected part of the team. As a business, we are passionate about nurturing the very best young talent and we know how important and lifechanging offering apprenticeships can be. Many of our team have joined us in this way and have since worked their way up the ranks. Seeing that kind of progression is inspirational and we remain committed to offering apprenticeships for the long-term.”
