Whether you work in the Marketing team, PR team or Email Marketing team, everyone is extremely approachable and will make time for you. Everyone has the same goal, to achieve the best product or service for clients, but also to create an environment that is positive and fun. You can genuinely feel that everyone loves coming to work.”

The team, and the ambitions of the business have grown and we’re working on some really exciting projects. What’s great about Antler is the people - we’re a close-knit team, all working together and supporting each other, not just in our career journeys, but our life journeys too.
