Small Independent Consultancy of the Year

Summary of work

WCG London opened in May 2008 with one employee and won its first global account the following month. Since then, WCG London has rapidly grown its client roster, its staff, its influence and its revenue within global healthcare spaces. In fact, by the end of 2011, it had 13 account management staff, representing 10 clients for 15 brands across global, European and UK geographies.

WCG’s growth strategy centres around hiring senior staff with cross-functional experience and entrenching them in client business thus allowing bespoke communications services and solutions supported by its client-validated analytical approaches.
