Why Satsuma?

Satsuma isn’t like other agencies.
We attract the very best staff because we don’t insist they are geographically located on the doorstep of our agency headquarters in Suffolk.
In fact, our spread across the UK functions better – allowing us to work with companies all over the country where we almost certainly have a member of staff nearby for those face-to-face meetings.
Not only do our team all work remotely but they work flexibly too.
This is because we trust our staff to deliver. On their own terms. In their own time.
And because this gives them a better balanced work and home life, they give us – and our clients – 100% when they are online.
We have become a leading and award-winning agency in the East of England and we are looking to add to our high-performing team.
