Edge45® is a Digital Marketing Agency in York. Despite being formed in April 2015, Edge45® has, in fact, been over 20 years in the making. Founder, Colm Docherty, is a qualified mechanical engineer with a lifetime of number crunching and problem solving behind him – skills perfectly suited to the world of online search.
Paired with a naturally analytical nature, Colm’s engineering expertise brought a fresh approach to the world of SEO, PPC, Content and CRO. However, after working amongst SEO consultants for a number of years at some of the largest agencies in the digital field, Colm saw a lot of room for improvement. Dismayed by the lack of common sense and transparency where the agency’s bottom line was put before clients, he felt there was a distinct gap in the digital marketing marketplace.
There had to be a better, more efficient, more ethical way of doing business.
Thus, Edge45® was born.
Fast forward to today and we now have a senior team of experts that have similar shared experiences who are invested in realising Colm’s passion to make Edge45® the best Search Agency.
I've actually been at Edge45 for three and a half years now, which is actually the longest I've ever spent at a company, and the reasons for that are simple. They've trusted in me to really take ownership of the projects that I'm working on. I've received a ton of training. It's a really close-knit team of people, and it's one of those places where you just enjoy going to work.
Edge is a really fun agency to work at. It's a good close team. Everyone's gets involved. Everyone chips in. We've got some really interesting clients. You're not just sort of, you know, pigeonholed, and sort of like you are a writer. You are doing strategy, you are doing, you know, the technical side. Everyone does a bit of everything. So you learn really fast. Everyone's really supportive. So everyone's sort of...you know, if you need to figure out how to use a program or some software or a website, there's someone there who knows, and they will run you through it.
The hybrid working. So mix of coming into the office, mix of working from home, I've found that's a fantastic way of working. Throughout my days when I'm at home, I've got my head down, I'm getting through a lot of work, but equally coming into the office, you've got that strong family feel in the office, and everyone gets on really well.
It's not just, you know, work, work, work all the time. There are moments where you can relax a little bit, you can socialize a little bit, and that's really nice as well.
There is always that sort of community atmosphere. Like, there's always people in the office, and I think Colm and Jo have fostered a really nice sort of environment to work in. And everyone's that friendly and sort of positive, and, like, we play Mario Kart on lunch. It's a really nice environment to work in, in that, you know, you're not just a number, you are sort of a member of the team, and you feel special to work here.
