Rock Kitchen Harris has been proudly independent since 1982.
Like our emblem, the hummingbird, our independence defines us.
No flock. No parent group. We're employee owned.
We’re building our futures, protecting our legacy for our colleagues and our clients.
We believe authentic independence is a serious differentiator.
In a climate of consolidation, acquisition and margin pressure.
Most agencies are building toward an exit. We’re not.
No exit horizon. No group reporting line. No acquisition strategy.
We're building for future growth + longevity.
Our mission is to make work that makes a difference.
Over forty years of human connection and creative thinking.
Applied to real problems, for real brands, with real passion.
We embrace the new, different, weird and the wonderful without hesitation.
Why? Two reasons.The same two reasons we've always had.
To have fun and deliver serious results.

Benefits
There is a real buzz, excitement and a family feel about our agency and all 70 of us are passionate about what we do.
As a fully remote agency, working from home (or wherever else you fancy), is our standard but our team spirit and strong culture shines through. We frequently organise meetups to get together, share pictures of our pets and kids, and have that all important face time with colleagues and friends.
Above all, after a fulfilling day’s work, people log off with a smile on their face. Looking after each other is what we’re really proud of.
But, this is a job ad and we get how it needs to work. Other benefits include:
- Competitive salary based on your experience
- Flexibility to work remotely
- 20 days annual leave and 8 days national bank holidays plus extra time around Christmas (based on full time working hours)
- Your birthday off
- Time off to volunteer for local charities to make a difference
- A big good old messy Christmas party and a mid-year summer party (all expenses paid)
- Whatever computer, software, books and other materials you might need
- A healthy budget for whatever training, conferences, and other qualifications you might be interested in taking
- Regular team social activities - think crazy golf, bowling, going out for drinks and a curry
