OVERVIEW
Ampersand is a senior-led recruitment agency that acts as the connection point between great minds and great work. With decades of cross-sector experience and a deep, trusted network, Ampersand advocates for both clients and candidates—championing opportunities, negotiating needs, and offering hands-on, high-level guidance every step of the way.
THE PROBLEM
Ampersand is a senior-led recruitment agency with a network that spans sectors and industries. Despite their longstanding reputation for sophistication, depth, and trust, their existing digital presence didn’t reflect the calibre of their brand. They needed a site that would position them as industry leaders and clearly communicate the breadth of their expertise.
THE SOLUTION
We partnered with Ampersand to reimagine their digital presence—one that mirrors the trust and professionalism they’ve cultivated over decades. With a content-heavy site and a strong editorial tone, our focus centred on creating a clear, intuitive information architecture and establishing a refined typographic hierarchy. These foundations brought order to dense content, allowing users to navigate thought leadership pieces, role listings, and sector insights with ease. Visually, the site was kept clean and minimal, with generous white space and restrained use of colour to allow content to lead. To balance this simplicity and prevent the experience from feeling static, we introduced subtle micro-interactions—gentle fades, hover states, and scroll-based transitions—that added a sense of movement and tactility without distracting from the core message.
THE RESULT
Through this collaboration, Ampersand now has a digital experience that mirrors their values: thoughtful, professional, and deeply connected. The result is a modern, content-first platform that elevates their authority, supports their extensive client and candidate network, and reinforces their position as trusted advisors in recruitment.
A WORD FROM AMPERSAND
“Chris, Kyla and team did an incredible job to revamp our website. They were accommodating to our needs, understood our brief, and executed the plan to perfection. I found them to be extremely flexible, professional, and appreciated their consultative approach as they guided us through the process. We are absolutely delighted with the end result and proud to have our new website showcase our brand. Thank you Refresh Digital!”
