Present Works Limited secures six-figure NPIF - FW Capital investment

Digital marketing firm Present Works has received a £100,000 investment from NPIF – FW Capital Debt Finance, managed by FW Capital and part of the Northern Powerhouse Investment Fund (NPIF).

Present Works is a B2B digital marketing team that helps businesses find and engage their audiences through the application of digital, data and creative activities.

Founded by a highly experienced management team in 2018, Leeds-based Present Works helps clients from across the world to develop and deliver strategies that achieve sustainable business growth online.

Present Works will use the growth capital investment to fund a move to larger premises and create further new jobs in Leeds.

The investment was introduced by Simon Palmer of Garbutt & Elliott and facilitated by FW Capital Senior Investment Executive Keith Charlton.

Brett Jacob, Present Works MD, said: “Present Works offers a range of services for which there is an established and growing demand and constantly improving market conditions.  This investment will allow us to increase our product range and skillset and grow with market demand. We are very grateful to FW Capital for their support.” 

Keith Charlton, Senior Investment Executive at FW Capital, said: “Since starting trading, Present Works has grown significantly. The company continues to secure new business with repeat revenue as its reputation and presence in the market expands. 

“Present Works has a fantastic balance of creative, digital and data expertise that separates it from the competition.  We are delighted to assist them with this investment.”
