agency4D has announced the appointment of Martin Dickson to its advisory board as the Leeds-based brand experience agency continues to strengthen its strategic leadership team and support its next phase of growth.

Martin brings extensive experience across business leadership, placemaking and regional development, alongside a strong network and long-standing involvement within Yorkshire’s business and cultural communities.

His appointment represents another significant step in agency4D’s evolution as the business expands its strategic offer across brand, workplace and experiential environments.

Alongside his wider business interests, Martin is actively involved with LeedsBID, LIFI, and serves as a trustee of the Thackray Museum of Medicine — organisations focused on driving positive impact across the city and region. Before all of this, he spent the 90’s working closely with some of the worlds most celebrated artists in the music industry.

Managing Director Lee Ford said:

“Martin brings a huge amount of experience, commercial understanding and strategic insight to the business. More importantly, he understands the role that connection, culture and place play in shaping successful organisations and communities. We’re incredibly pleased to welcome him to the advisory board.”

Martin Dickson added:

“agency4D is building something with genuine purpose and ambition. The team has created a strong reputation within the industry and there’s a clear vision for where the business is heading. I’m looking forward to supporting the next stage of growth.”

The appointment forms part of a wider investment into agency4D’s leadership structure as the business continues to scale its strategic capabilities across property, workplace and education sectors.

Over the last 12 months, agency4D has expanded its services across brand strategy, spatial branding, workplace experience and placemaking, working with organisations throughout the UK and internationally.

Martin’s appointment follows several recent senior additions to the business including Jeff Pearey, formerly a veteran of Property giant JLL, and reinforces agency4D’s ambition to become one of the UK’s leading agencies specialising in brand experience and human-centred environments.
