We’re mates first, colleagues second
and serious Mario Kart competitors third.

We’re all here because we’re the kind of people who agree that the only good kind of puzzle is a solved one. We’re creative thinkers that believe in solutions, not excuses.

Calligraphy Wizard

Dom has been a part of Neighbourhood since the beginning - in fact, he was the original ‘neighbour’; our very first intern. In the years since then, he has risen to become our current Head of Strategy; the one we turn to when there’s a problem to be solved or if we need to know all the reasons our big, crazy ideas might not actually work.

With a background in Copywriting and Advertising, and the only ‘actual’ graphic design degree in the company (despite what everyone else will claim), he’s a bit of a marketing swiss army knife; if you have questions you need answering, whether they’re work or trivia related, then Dom’s the man to ask.

Our Story

From the kitchen bench to the world 🌎

  • Humanising marketing communciations
  • Taking customer engagement seriously
  • 4 years later Neighbourhood is born
  • Neighbourhood continues to grow year on year

Humanising marketing communciations

  • Big businesses aren't good at humanising their marketing communications. It was a realisation that came quickly to Trav, a man with a solid background in sales and who had previously owned a creative agency.
  • How could such successful companies be doing such a garbage job of treating their customers like actual people?!

Taking customer engagement seriously

  • Setting out with a laptop, a phone and the skills learnt from years as a salesman, Trav wanted to encourage businesses to look at customer engagement seriously, to stop just following the herd and start communicating naturally. In short, to be real. 

4 years later Neighbourhood is born

  • 4 years later, after working with over 134 different clients, Trav decided it was time to fully commit; to refocus his own business on the same goal he’d helped so many other brands achieve. Neighbourhood was born as a force to inspire deeper, more meaningful communication between brands and their people, wherever they may be.

Neighbourhood continues to grow year on year

  • It has proved to an inspiration sorely needed, as Neighbourhood continues to grow year on year. By focusing on professional development internally and continuous development for our clients, Neighbourhood is personalising, automating and helping more brands than ever before. Neighbourhood is here to help brands solve their customers problems, not sell to them.
