Starting out differently

If you’ve been to Leith recently, you’d think it’s the perfect place for an agency. It’s quirky and brimming with artisan flat whites. But Leith wasn’t always the obvious choice. When we opened our doors, it wasn’t another Soho or a Madison Avenue. But it was down-to-earth and real. Just like our ideas and the people who bring them to life.

Bold ideas that make a difference

A bold idea can make something a ‘must-have’. It can help a business hit the headlines for a good reason. Turn a PC pet peeve into a time-saving tech win. Or simply make someone feel something. Intrigue, remorse, hope or just a much-needed laugh after a long day.

When it’s a really good one, a bold idea can help someone or even help the world. We truly believe bold ideas can make a difference, and we know how to make it happen. So tell us your biggest challenge and we’ll give you our boldest idea.

What does a bold idea look like?

It could be a new website, an unexpected insight or a quick-witted Instagram campaign. Bold ideas can look like anything. But the best bold ideas look like something you’ve never seen before.

What We Do

A bold bunch

You need the best of a best bunch to get the best ideas (try saying that after a few mimosas). We’ve got the old-school, the new-school and even the skipped school and got a punny crowd. We like techy things, arty things and finding out about things that haven’t even been invented yet. Get a feel for life at Leith in our quarterly magazine.

Making a difference, wherever we are

Us Leithers want to make a difference, and not just in the world of adland. We’re on a mission to make our agency diverse, to promote inclusivity and champion both in the real world. We also look for any excuse to get out and about in our namesake, Leith. So we’ve made a gin with a local distiller, a hot sauce in aid of Fisherman’s Mission and brewed a beer to help the Water of Leith Conservation trust.

Become a Leither

We’ve set up a mentoring scheme with our local high school. We’re opening our doors to Modern Apprentices and the JET Academy.

And we take on interns throughout the year – now we’ve mastered remote working, you can even do it from home. If you want to come in and join us, send us an email, your CV or a bag of M&Ms (that’s how I got the job). We’re always on the lookout for folk who want to make a difference.
