Being in business for two decades means in depth experience about what works and, more importantly, what doesn’t.
CGA was first set up in 1985 and has been helping clients fast track their brands and businesses ever since. CGA has experience of working across a wide variety of business sectors including travel and leisure, food and drink, financial services, IT, the SME sector and charities.
The combination of strong marketing skills with strong creative skills in the agency is what makes CGA a high performance partner. Sound planning and strategic marketing understanding mean that the briefing into the creative team is clear and in turn they can deliver concepts and executions which achieve business objectives.
The skills in the business lie with the people:
Jez Clement
Creative Director with
strong creative experience
in travel, music, B2B,
FMCG and public communications. Jez came
to CGA from London based
design consultancy Form
and has freelanced for
various London agencies
including Design Bridge.
Jez has a passion for
everything creative and is
a ‘tour de force’ in the CGA
team.

Managing Director and
Creative Head. Charles
has considerable
experience across many
business sectors including
