Salad is freshening up their leadership and premises
Salad, a creative design agency which is widely known for taking the full 20 staff to Madrid for a Christmas party, has set up a satellite office in London.
This Madrid trip prompted a number of expressions of interest from people wanting to work there too.
Its “Team England” Commonwealth Games website beat multiple respected competitors to win the Sports Website of the Year title at the Drum Digital Awards (DADIs). It was also shortlisted for a British Interactive Media Association (BIMA) award and at the Lovie Awards, which recognise internet achievements across Europe.
Their new London office is located in House of St Barnabas in Soho and it is led by Salad’s head of marketing, Fleurie Forbes-Martin. The move was preceded by gaining a number of successful London clients, such as the jeweller House of Garrard and the Bloomberg Square Mile Relay, as well as Commonwealth Games England.
Fleurie Forbes-Martin said: “It’s about nurturing those relationships, having a presence so we can spend time with them and listen to their challenges.
“Most importantly, it’s about establishing our name and presence and more of a reputation in an area where the majority of our customers are based.”
Salad has also established a new leadership team, consisting of Fleurie Forbes, Martin; Matt Leach, head of digital; Dan Young, head of creative; Jon Lockhart, lead creative; Michael Jamieson, account director; and Sophia Taglialavore, studio manager.

Many office-based businesses don’t see the point in using a time and attendance system, but we think differently.
It doesn’t have to be Big Brother – you don’t even need to take action on your data if you don’t want to. But we know from experience that companies find the new, almost real-time data we can offer them very useful in building up a bigger picture of your employees’ punctuality and productivity.
Company who don’t use time and attendance systems often say that it is good enough for the management to get employees to ring them about absences, and that they will notice suspicious lateness patterns.
But humans are fallible: that’s why we have computers! Unless the manager marks absences down on some sort of calendar they won’t notice any patterns, and lateness can be missed if the manager isn’t actively watching the door! Getting a system to take care of all this time-wasting monitoring for you is just common sense.
Many time and attendance systems require physical hardware, which can’t be installed when you don’t own the place where you work. Others only work in the cloud, which may not be suitable for your company’s needs due to bandwidth, security and software compatibility concerns.
We can offer renting companies our Self Service Module (SSM). This allows employees to clock in and out using either a browser version, or a mobile phone app. They can also request holiday using this app, which eliminates the need for cumbersome paper holiday forms. All the time data is sent straight to the central software, where you can view it in a number of formats.
