Ilk Agency

Operating out of Leeds Dock since 1999, Ilk works across brand, social, PR, digital and production for clients that range from global charities to dynamic startups and established brands. The agency describes itself as an ideas business, built on integrating those disciplines rather than treating them as separate departments.

Core brand work covers identity, brand story development, logo design, graphic design and copywriting, paired with brand strategy, brand consultancy, audience targeting and digital tactics to shape how a brand is positioned before it goes to market. Campaign output extends into out-of-home advertising, print design, animation and broader brand campaigns, giving clients a route from strategic groundwork through to public-facing creative.

On the production side, Ilk handles video production and social content in-house, along with product photography and food photography, managing talent, scripting and editing as part of the same process. This end-to-end setup means a rebrand or campaign can move from positioning and visual identity through to filmed and photographed content without handing off between separate suppliers, which suits clients needing consistent output across brand guidelines, digital channels and media relations.
