WeLove9am is an employer branding and recruitment marketing agency. It works from Poulton, Cirencester, in the United Kingdom. Its size band is 11-50 (LinkedIn, read 2026-09-03). The trading company has been majority owned by Made By Nine Ltd since 2 May 2018, a holding company controlled by founder Mark Bevans. It sits here under employer branding and recruitment marketing. Our take The case studies run the whole line, not just the brand end. Signature and Kensington and Chelsea are research led builds: focus groups, employee and external surveys, an employee value proposition, then a careers site and film. Barnardo's is pure media buying, priced against job board application data. Strategy plus bought and optimised media, some through a programmatic platform the firm built itself, is the real shape of the work. The award record clusters on public sector, care and hospitality accounts. The caution is scale. This is a team in one Cotswolds studio, the site names no sector practices and no office outside the United Kingdom, and the blog has not been updated since May 2026.
