AFTER a turbulent few weeks staff at the region’s biggest marketing agency are back at their desks.
About 40 of the 90 staff who lost their jobs earlier this month when Robson Brown in Newcastle went into administration have been employed by new owner Mission Marketing Group plc.
The move ends weeks of speculation.
Andrew Marwick, managing director of Robson Brown, said: “Joining the Mission Group gives us the opportunity to re-cement Robson Brown’s status as one of the most creative agencies in the North of England.
“It provides certainty for the brand and allows the team to concentrate fully on delivering the powerful and memorable campaigns on which the agency built its reputation.”
