A leading direct marketing and data company which is celebrating its 10^th anniversary has announced plans to expand into Europe.

Communication Avenue, based in Newark, marked a decade of continued growth, development and learning in the direct marketing industry with a black tie dinner on Friday 28^th August at Burghley House in Stamford.

During the event, which brought together staff and clients of the last 10 years, CEO Phil Lightfoot expressed his plans for future growth and development:

“We feel strongly about ethical data collection, we believe there is an opportunity to deliver tailored and specific marketing to individuals and clients. It’s a constant learning curve, but we strive for perfection and to that end have invested heavily in compliance and ensuring our staff are fully aware of our mission,” he said.

Communication Avenue is a young, dynamic and growing company, which aims to continue to support and create opportunities within the organisation for the local community

“We are keen to offer a helping hand to young people just starting out in the workplace and have championed an in-house Academy Programme – an apprentice scheme for young people aged 16 to 24 who are looking for real experience in business. Six of our apprentices have completed the scheme and now enjoy fulfilling careers within our organisation. We also continue to invest in our staff at all levels”, said Phil.

In the last decade the company has developed into one of the leading UK data providers with a 50-strong team, five outsourced call centres and a growing list of loyal clients.

Communications Avenue’s vision is to continue to expand the business both at home and abroad with a move into European business markets alongside further UK growth.
