Expansion sees Leeds based tech company reporting global growth

Search Laboratory, one of the UK’s leading digital marketing agencies, with offices in Leeds, London and New York, has announced significant turnover growth from its international offering. The business success has resulted in a series of new hires, taking the company headcount from 120 in 2016, to 150 this month – a 25% increase.

Search Laboratory is an agency specialising in growing businesses internationally; the company has a 30 strong team of mother tongue digital marketing experts, that have helped international enterprises in over 35 different countries. The turnover from Search Laboratory’s international clients has grown by 52% between 2016 and 2018, with the biggest uplift coming from Europe (71% uplift) and the US (41%).

Search Laboratory CEO, Chris Attewell, comments on the growth: “Search Laboratory is one of the only agencies with an international offering that employs mother tongue digital experts. This allows us to conduct international campaigns that are linguistically and culturally faithful; many companies rely on translators that can damage a brand and prevent successful global expansion.

“The consistent growth of our international offering shows that our approach works, and we are delighted to have so many international enterprises on board.”


Offering an innovative full-service approach to digital marketing, Search Laboratory is known for its expertise in analytics, data science, Google Analytics 360, SEO, PPC, social media and programmatic display. The company is widely recognised as a digital leader in the North, and was recently ranked in the UK wide Sunday Times Best Companies To Work For list.
