Jungle Creations, a London-based social and influencer publishing agency, has opened an office on King Street in Manchester city centre, signalling its intention to invest in northern talent.
The move comes after the launch of its remote Manchester team, which has grown to 10 people in its first year.
The addition of an office now provides a permanent base for the expanding northern team and strengthens Jungle’s offering outside of London, which forms part of the agency’s long-term growth plan.
Siobhan McDade, chief publishing officer at Jungle Creations, said: “Manchester has an incredibly strong creative identity and a deep pool of socially native talent.
“As a publisher and social influencer agency, having a permanent base here allows us to build real community, not just teams.
“It creates the environment needed for people to collaborate properly, learn from each other and feel genuinely invested in what we’re building together.
“While the space is currently a blank canvas, plans are underway to give it a distinctive Jungle feel, creating an environment that reflects the business’s personality rather than a traditional corporate setup.
“The intention is to build a welcoming, creative base for the Manchester team, with room to grow and space for colleagues from across the business to spend time working in the city.”
Additionally, the opening signals continued expansion for Jungle Media, the publishing division, which has grown significantly over the past year.
Director of social at Jungle Creations, Tom MacKinder, underlined the role the northern media hub has played in this.
He said: “2025 marked a real transformation for Jungle Media, with significant growth across our platforms, brands and teams.
“A big part of that momentum has come from the North West. Manchester has become one of the most exciting digital media hubs in the UK, and in under a year, we’ve grown the team here from one to 10 people.
“This office gives us the foundation to keep scaling as we enter 2026.”
The business now employs 106 full-time staff across London and Manchester.
