Attracting new talent with a personal approach to innovation

Insight

Roke is a research and development business that rely on a strong supply of highly skilled engineers. They are a complex company with business units that feel like distinct entities. They needed a central employer brand with enough flexibility to tailor to each audience – ensuring it was authentic to the employee experience.

Idea

We did some extensive research with employees to understand what they love about working there. We used this to create their employee value proposition, and surrounding employer brand. The solution had one central theme, a number of underlying key messages and a wealth of proof points to bring it to life. The result was a clear brand with the depth and flexibility to work for each department and role.

Impact

We used employee Polaroids and quotes to make it personal and build the authenticity. Our assets were put to immediate use across a series of recruitment marketing campaigns. Initial feedback has been fantastic. Roke is continuing to review and improve their recruitment content with our new approach.
