Kristen Boschma, OUA’s Director of Brand, Communication and Marketing said, “Mitchells provided a highly integrated response to brief, from a strategic, account management and performance point of view. They clearly demonstrated that they had an unparalleled understanding of our business and its drivers of success, both now and in the future.”

“They offered us innovative through the line communications solutions that we felt would best support us and, importantly, our students and stakeholders, as we grow our business and continue to support students on their study journey. These factors combined to see them judged number one across all key performance metrics, against some strong competition.”

To top it all off, there is a great cultural fit and shared vision between our two organisations and people.”

“This win is a great demonstration of what a truly collaborative approach between our Group’s disciplines can deliver and is further testament to the great people and product we have all developed.”

Mitchells will commence work for OUA from 18th August.
