Big news from BJM Digital - we're absolutely thrilled to announce that we've moved to a wonderful new office at Manor Court in Ribchester! As our team has grown and our projects have become even more ambitious, we realised we needed a communal space. We wanted somewhere we could truly get stuck into project planning, collaborate on exciting new ventures, and, most importantly, warmly welcome all the brilliant clients we work with.
This isn't just a change of address; our new office has quickly become a hub of exciting development, nestled in the most beautiful surroundings. Manor Court offers a truly unique mix of beautifully restored old stone buildings with state-of-the-art modern facilities. It's set within the historic grounds of Salesbury Hall, near the charming village of Ribchester - a place brimming with history and a real sense of community. You can literally feel its rich past, from the nearby Roman fort and bathhouse to the original stonework and timber of our own buildings, which have been lovingly converted to blend perfectly with the picturesque Ribble Valley countryside. It's such an inspiring environment that perfectly fuels our creative energy!
At BJM Digital, we've always believed in creating a dynamic and supportive place to work. While our new office provides an incredible central space, we're still committed to offering our team the flexibility to work from home and choose flexible hours. We have absolute trust in our team to use their professional judgment, knowing that a happy work-life balance sparks innovation and dedication. This philosophy is deeply rooted in how we've built our team, as many of us have had the pleasure of working together at various points in our careers, forging strong bonds and a shared understanding that makes us tick.
Our team is truly the heart of BJM Digital - a fantastic collection of individuals Marc and Beth have purposefully brought together. People they trust implicitly and revere massively in their disciplines.
- Beth, our Content Director, holds a BA in English Literature and Creative Writing and brings extensive leadership experience as a former Assistant Head Teacher and Head of English. She's worked alongside Ali, a former leader in education with a Masters in Creative Writing, who is now a vital part of our strategic thinking, brand voice, and content team.
- Marco, married to Beth, leads us as MD, drawing on his expertise as the former leader of the development team at Workhouse Marketing, bringing over 20 years of experience in the marketing industry.
- We're delighted to have Heather, a former member of Marco’s digital team at Workhouse, our talented designer and Front End Developer, on board. Heather is married to Tom, our super organised Project Manager, who comes from a fascinating background in medical research.
- Andy, Marc and Beth's brother-in-law, a former "map man" who worked with Ribble Valley County Council, now serves as BJM's Solutions Architect and Data Expert. Nothing is impossible with Andy on the job.
- Andy introduced us to Sam, a former bid writer, who started as a copywriter and content writer and now brilliantly leads our SEO strategy.
- And we can't forget Dave, another former member of Marco's team at Workhouse, who is truly a Dev extraordinaire! The man’s an actual genius!
Our family vibe is more than just a phrase at BJM; it’s the very essence of who we are. Our new home at Manor Court truly reflects our values – a wonderful blend of history and innovation, set in a green and gorgeous landscape. We can't wait for you to experience this beautiful new hub with us!
