Head Honcho, The Big Cheese, The Top Dog, Boss Man, Chief: these are all terms we never use to refer to Chris, but the implication is clear – he runs things at the Nettl of Gloucester studio.

He’s the oldest – sorry most experienced – marketer in the office, and for years has been providing solutions for businesses online and offline. He knows how best to structure and populate your website, and he can tell you how many grams you need – in the innocent world of print, that is.

He also has 3 chickens, 2 daughters and 1 camp cat. Oh, and a wife.

Ian is by no means your typical designer, but he does possess these familiar characteristics: the latest software at his disposal, a keen eye for detail, his own worst critic, and a strong dislike for Comic Sans. Touching his Mac screen is also considered sacrilege.

As an Apple loyalist, seldom will you know of any new products or updates before him. Hand-in-hand with Adobe Creative Suite, he crafts some of the most aesthetically pleasing graphics for our clients.

We often joke at his inability to crack a smile in photos, but he’s just as jolly as the rest of us really.

Angel, as with most coders, is the unsung hero in the studio. The seamless navigation and user experience on our websites can be attributed to her expert and passionate coding abilities. Her work demands some serious concentration, and two monitors – of which the rest of us are all jealous of.

When she is not busy at work bringing websites to life with a complex array of code, or talking in a geek language the rest of us pretend to understand, she is looking after her beloved Chihuahua, Pica.
Her other interests include creating pixel art, gaming and zombies.

Natalie, the “insane in the membrane” Marketing Apprentice is the Queen of all things Four Gates of Gloucester, the Social Enterprise website promoting local businesses and events run by the big cheese himself and local shop owner Ivan Truscott.

Known as the “Nutty” one in the office she utilizes her gift of the gab and people skills- networking with the local community with the aim of promoting all things within the Four Gate Streets of our historic City Centre.

Proudly the team therapist and Cheerleader, she is as approachable as an enthusiastic Gandhi, “Go Go Nettl Rangers!!”.

As the older person in the team he brings many years of experience and skills from a multitude of various industries… yet with one main goal as his mantra then and now – to achieve the best for his clients and the team he works with.

Brett; when not enjoying time with his family, can be found painting or gaming, unless Chewbacca the cat has decided he wants to play fight.

Snowy was to TinTin, what Hooch was to Turner, what Pica is to Angel. Every hero needs their accomplice and Pica plays this stealth secret agent role perfectly in our Nettl studio.

Excelling in his roles of receptionist, security enhancer/enforcer and chief cosy-snoozer, he’s not the least productive staff member we’ve known. If you ignore his sit-up-and-beg approaches (usually for a share of your lunch) you’re underestimating his innocent, calm deminer. At your peril. Now, what is it they say about a dog being like their owner?..
