Gale will oversee the strategic operation of the expanded office and work directly with clients based in the South of England and Europe as well as look into future acquisitions and the pan-european growth of CTI Digital.

Gale's promotion comes following the company's recent acquisition of e-commerce specialists Nublue and the hire of a new finance director. Prior to this new appointmnet, Gale was a director at CTI Digital, having joined the CTI Digital board earlier this year.

Nick Rhind, CEO at CTI Digital said: “With a fantastic team already in place, we’re looking forward to bringing on board a new generation of CTI Digital talent in London. Drawn from our proximity to Shoreditch’s Silicon Roundabout we hope to attract some of the capital’s best and brightest, as well as hiring talent from outside London."

Steve Gale, London MD at CTI Digital said: "Drawing on 15 years of accomplishments as an independent agency in Manchester, I’m looking forward to driving growth full-time in London. I believe CTI Digitals’ strong Technology-agnostic approach and Digital Transformation thinking will appeal well to an expanded London-focused client base.”
