With over 35 years marketing excellence

Let’s start at the beginning

Our Story

Established as a partnership between our founders, Eric and Richard, Riley Scott is a creative marketing agency in Manchester – the creative hub of the North-West.

With over 35 years experience in both agency and client side, Riley Scott helps our clients with creative and innovative solutions, using good old fashioned outside of the box thinking.

Leadership, strategy & creativity

Senior Team

Eric Riley

Creative Director

Eric leads our creative team, overseeing our studio and client management. He brings over 23 years experience working and managing his own successful agency, specialising FMCG, Retail and Pharma. He brings a true entrepreneurial spirit to the table, with a duty to honesty and integrity.

Richard Scott-Farrimond

Commercial Director

Richard leads our commercial strategy, overseeing our client management, and business operations. He has over 12 years experience working in Marketing and Sales, on a global scale, specialising in FMCG, Sporting Goods and Defence. He brings a big picture, common sense approach to doing business.

Mark Roche

Senior Designer

Mark is an insightful and intuitive designer, with over 30 years of experience in packaging design for top FMCG brands. He is truly detail orientated, and has even worked on some of our classified projects. When you can't find him at the office, he's likely to be whiling away the hours in his garden shed.

Culture is the cornerstone of success

Our Values

Some might say that the core values we try to instil in both our business and our team, would be common sense. However, for us, these values are more like a set of morals, that guide the way in which we do business, in our mission to become the best creative marketing agency in Manchester.

Open-Minded
There’s never a stupid question, just a stupid answer! It’s when we share our thoughts, that we truly grow in spirit and develop mutual trust.

Integrity
For us, integrity is one of the key pillars of our business. We believe that being honest and authentic to who you are is key to success and happiness.

Passion
In the words of Steve Jobs “Your work is going to fill a large part of your life, and the only way to be truly satisfied is to do what you believe is great work. And the only way to do great work is to love what you do.”

Stay Human
No, that’s not to say that we think everyone else are robots, but we have to remind ourselves that business life is made possible by home life, and one without the other breeds unhappiness.
