Medialam

About

Independent. Permanent staff. Permanently understaffed.

Medialam is an advertising agency in Wandsworth. We were founded in 1996 by three friends declared, in writing, unsuitable for any sane employer.

We noticed early that other agencies were charging clients double what an in-house team would cost. Since the beginning, we have been committed to doing things differently by charging quadruple instead.

At Medialam, we’re more than just colleagues — we’re a family. This means we pay very little and expect people to work late. We want our employees to bring their whole selves to work. In return, we just ask that they keep themselves there until at least 8:30pm.

We are not on the BACC roster. We have, between us, no awards, one minor knighthood, and two outstanding professional-conduct inquiries.

Our culture

Balance your passion with your passion for life.

  • Loyalty

    Our team has been with us since the beginning because, like Scientology, we know their secrets.

  • Trust

    We don't care when our team works just as long as they are working every waking second.

  • Compassion

    You never know what someone is going through at home, and we make sure to never find out.
