B2B and corporate communications specialists Ambitious PR has established new headquarters, hired three staff, won ten new clients and created a senior leadership team to drive growth and add value to its expanding client base.

In a move that coincides with the 10th anniversary of the founding of Ambitious, the Bristol-based agency has relocated to Courtyard House, Oakfield Road, in the heart of the city’s vibrant Clifton business community, to pave the way for the company’s further growth plans.

The move follows a string of new client wins for Ambitious in 2022 including Lifetime, Neighbourly, Acorn Property Group, Avantix, LawBite and Paramount.

Dani Andres has joined Ambitious as an associate director with a remit to drive a culture of creativity. Dani joins owners, Lis Anderson and Sarah Woodhouse, client services director Helen Embleton and finance manager Sandra Hodgson in a newly-formed senior management team.

Also joining Ambitious are University of West of England journalism and PR graduate Will Reid as PR executive and Bath Spa University publishing and creative writing graduate May Mower as the company’s new digital marketing assistant.

Lis Anderson, Ambitious co-founder and director, said: “Over the last decade, we have developed an enviable reputation across the business community because we constantly move with the times and strive to keep pace with the relentless revolution of the media to support our clients.

“These are exciting times for Ambitious and we are taking important steps to strengthen our position in the PR industry. Our investment in outstanding new talent, brilliant new workspace and highly experienced new leadership team signals our commitment to fuel future growth over the next ten years and beyond.”

Ambitious continues to deepen expertise in its core sectors of education, healthcare, financial and professional services, public sector, property, construction and technology and is now recognised as one of the UK’s top 10 ESG (Environment, Social and Governance) agencies by industry-leading publication PR Week.

As well as an array of industry awards, Ambitious has an impressive range of blue chip and fast-growth clients including Telefonica, St James’s Place plc and Xledger.

Having strengthened its digital PR and digital communications, and media relations offering to meet client demands and a growing number of new business briefs, following 50 per cent revenue growth in 2021, Ambitious is on track to break through the £1.2 million revenue barrier this year.


Peter Davison is deputy editor of The Business Magazine. He has spent his life in journalism – doing work experience in newsrooms in and around Bristol while still at school, and landing his first job on a local newspaper aged 19. By 28 he was the youngest newspaper editor in the country.

An early advocate of online news, he spent the first years of the 2000s telling his bosses that the internet posed both the biggest opportunity and greatest threat to the newspaper industry and the art of journalism. He was right on both counts.

Since 2006 he has enjoyed a career as a freelance journalist. He lives in rural Wiltshire with one wife, two children, and three cats.
