We've got Hutch studios in England, Scotland and Canada! In a series of blog posts we've been giving you a tour of each location and today it's the turn of Dundee. Here's Pat, our Performance Marketing Director to tell you all about our Scottish studio, including the 3 things they couldn't live without...

What attracts people to Hutch Dundee?

We've developed a highly-skilled team of professionals all looking to grow with other focussed and passionate colleagues. From that, we have recruited and trained members of the team, thus creating a collaborative and supportive environment to attract the best people.

How many people in the Dundee studio?

There are 16 of us in the Dundee studio. We are mainly focussed on Performance Marketing and that takes in various disciplines such as User Acquisition, App Store Optimisation, Conversion Rate Optimisation, Marketing Analytics and Creative Production. We also have the Art Outsource Management team based in the office. On any in-office day, you'll find the team planning and managing Facebook campaigns, reporting on ROAS (return on ad spend), analysing and planning creative optimisations, researching app store best practices, competitor research and production of our Ads. There is a high degree of learning, research and planning behind most of the work that we do.

The Office Location

How would you describe where the office is?

We're in a development area of the docks, in a quay on the waterfront with residential and commercial buildings. On one side is an industrial port with an ocean-based Wind Turbine logistics hub, Oil Rig decommissioning and the odd cruise ship now and again. On the other is the city of Dundee with residential and commercial areas. An urbanised version of the Eden Project is planned just minutes away from the office.

Any favourite places people like to get lunch from?

We're a 10 minute stroll to the city centre with a full range of options for meat lovers and vegans alike...and anything in between.

What’s good about being based where you are?

The office is purpose-developed refurbished and modernised quay building with about 12 other businesses in the game development and technology sector, and therefore there is a great cultural fit in the building.
