Set up by Marcie Bell, our name is a play on words – the foundry being where bells are cast (with thanks to creative input from the talented Andrea Cockerton back in the noughties).
Unlike agencies, The Foundry House has no hierarchy. We all run our own businesses but enjoy collaborating with each other too. We are highly experienced in what we do and we add most value when we are seen as an extension of your in-house team.
Whether you work only with Marcie or with Marcie and the wider team, you’ll find we build strong working relationships, hit the ground running and gain the confidence of people at all levels quickly.
We work with organisations of all sizes, from young, growing companies to larger corporates who need additional capacity or fresh strategic input.
The Foundry House ethos
Straight talking. We don’t make promises we can’t keep. And we’ll tell you if we think you’re barking up the wrong tree!
Flexible. Project-based or retainer; one consultant or a team. It’s your call.
Disciplined. You can rely on us to be on time, on message and on top of our work for you. As experienced communicators and project managers, we are consummate forward planners – with an eye for detail.
Empathetic. We’ll put ourselves in your shoes and those of your stakeholders to deliver a meaningful engagement strategy.
Added value. We develop a strategy and framework that fits your aspirations and budget while helping to build capacity in-house.
Fun. A sense of humour has never been more important than it is now, as we all find our way through the pandemic. We bring energy and positivity to our work.
