A Manchester -headquartered strategic design agency is creating new jobs after it experienced a 113% growth in its first quarter..

Absurd's expansion comes after it was awarded a number of major new projects, three resulting from competitive pitches.

The agency, which specialises in digital products and service design, works as the design partner for large organisations through to scale-ups, with long-standing clients including Umbro, Brother and LV=.

After a successful inaugural service design programme for pharmaceutical giant Astra Zeneca, Absurd is now looking at further projects with the Luton-based team to support its Oncology Business Unit (OBU), which specialises in the development of cancer treatment medicines.

Work is also underway for Institut Francis, the official French government centre of language and culture in London, which has appointed Absurd to help the organisation transition to online learning.

A third new business win sees Absurd supporting online dungarees brand Lucy and Yak to accelerate its e-commerce growth.

On the back of the growth, Absurd has five vacancies currently being filled, with front end developer Ben Hirst joining the team this month as the first of these new positions.
