We recently worked with GiveAGradAGo to develop a case study of our partnership to date.

We moved into our shiny new office in Monument to cater for our growth
2019 was also a year of transition for Semetrical, as we left our offices in Spitalfields and moved to Monument.
It was important for us to remain close to the City of London as we aim to be in a position to travel with relative ease to see our clients face to face whenever possible.
Our new offices come fully equipped with a fantastic rooftop offering views over the Thames, Tower Bridge and St. Pauls.
Tom, our Head of Analytics had a baby and Ben, our Head of SEO, got married!
We had more to celebrate in 2019 as Tom had his first child, Teddy. It’s been a pleasure for everyone at Semetrical to share the stories of Tom’s voyage into parenthood.
Ben also got married in September 2019 in what was an incredible day for all those involved. We all wish Ben and his wife Rachel all the best moving into 2020, and their first year of marriage.
Ben & Rory celebrated 5 years at Semetrical!
Ben and Rory started at Semetrical in 2014 and have hired, provided training and now manage a collective 20 employees for Semetrical within the SEO and Inbound Marketing departments. They have both contributed significantly to the agency’s rapid growth.
Ben and Rory were the account leads for the 2 campaign awards the agency have picked up over the years; including Best PPC Campaign at the EU Search Awards 2017, and the Best Use of Search in B2B at the EU Search Awards 2019.
Their efforts over the past five and a half years have helped Semetrical to be awarded Best Small SEO Agency at the EU Search Awards 2017, and Best Small SEO Agency at the UK Search Awards 2019.

Dom was nominated for Young Search Professional of the Year at the EU Search Awards 2019. His story here at Semetrical shows what hard work and talent can achieve in a short space of time.
Dom joined us straight out of school at 17, and he became a senior member of the company within 2 years. He contributed to Semetrical’s data driven approach to content production, creating our CRO service offering and uses data to define strategy improvements across a wide range of SEO & PPC campaigns.
