Spain 2023

After a busy first six months of 2023, our team recently flew to Spain to spend a few days together in order to reset, reflect, and define our future strategy.

The trip was also planned to reward our staff’s contribution to a strong start to the year, and help several new arrivals get to know their colleagues.

Having flown to Alicante from Bristol we headed an hour north to Moixent, where our team fought off fitness concerns to defeat our friends in a closely-contested football match (despite a wayward Alex James penalty).

The next day we headed to the scenic Venta Del Moro to embark on a white water rafting trip, before a team strategy meeting led by new Managing Partner Matt Joy. The purpose of this session was for us to align on the focus for the next 6 months but also looking at the bigger picture of who we want to be and growth plans for the next 2-3 years.

And not forgetting the stunning food and plenty of laughs in beautiful Spanish weather!

What We Say:

“We came into 2023 aware of the tough financial climate, however thanks to the drive and commitment of the team we’ve had an exceptional first half of the year which has set the perfect platform to now push on. It was important that we had some time to reflect on those successes, particularly given the recent additions to the team but it was valuable to use this time away as an opportunity to articulate the direction we are taking as an agency.”

– Joe Meredith, Managing Director at JMP.

“Selfishly, starting week two with this trip was perfect timing, allowing me to spend time outside of the office getting to know everybody on a personal level, and for them to get to know me. The strategy workshop was an opportunity to gain perspective on where we are now and for us to collectively discuss what the future looks like and where we want to go as an agency“ 

– Matt Joy, Managing Partner at JMP.

“Spain was a fantastic trip and the perfect opportunity for the whole team to spend some well earned time together. We had great fun, explored new places. Our dynamic as a group really benefited from being away together, giving us a brilliant chance to mix and build stronger relationships across the whole team, resulting in lots of fun and laughter!”

– Vicki Theobald, Operations Director at JMP.
