Hawthorn Advisors


It has been a landmark year for Hawthorn Advisors, celebrating our 10th year in business and exceeding £10m in revenue. We have grown at pace, driven by our relentless commitment to delivering results for our clients, by consistent innovation and by our focus on creating a dynamic and entrepreneurial ideas-based culture in which colleagues can thrive. This has helped us win new business and grow existing mandates and has allowed our clients to secure deep and productive engagement with their stakeholders. To bolster our core corporate, financial and public affairs communications services, we launched our AI adoption strategy, spearheaded by our AI taskforce. AI tools are now used routinely by colleagues to drive results, improve efficiency and enrich our advice to clients as well as help them better manage their reputations online. We have also held several events in the year to guide the best practice use of AI within our industry and the wider economy. To further achieve our growth, we have invested in attracting and retaining best-in-class talent from globally renowned PR agencies, industry leaders, media publications and from the political sphere. We now have more than 70 staff across London and New York working with over 70 clients in 18 cities globally. Through annual employee engagement surveys, multiple operating policies, benefit packages, health and wellbeing provision, as well as committees guiding our future workplace, we place our colleagues front and centre of every decision and evolution we have undertaken as an agency.
