About us
Wonderhood Studios is a unique independent creative company founded by people with the skills to deliver impact across advertising, premium TV, social and design.
We provoke wonder through a neighbourhood of curious minds, developing original ideas that impact culture for brands, platforms and broadcasters. And because of our unique studio structure, working with and at Wonderhood Studios feels different. We are a vibrant community with a rich tapestry of expertise and diversity, coming together to create a dynamic environment. Our breakthrough thinking occurs at the boundaries of knowledge, disciplines and perspectives.
And keeping it is even harder.
Audiences are fragmented.
Media is fragmented.
We need new thinking.
This doesn’t happen by staying in your lane.
It takes a combination of skills.
Shared knowledge.
And a challenging POV.
Introducing Wonderhood Studios.

We partner with world-class talent.
To deliver breakthrough ideas.
To generate national conversations.
To provoke wonder.
And move audiences across the world.
Let us pay some real attention to you.

Our DE&I Mission Statement
At Wonderhood, we are dedicated to fostering diversity and inclusivity across our organisation and in our creative output.
Recognising the importance of reflecting the rich tapestry of our modern, multicultural society, we actively champion diversity in both our workforce and the content we produce.
As part of this commitment, Wonderhood is continuously engaged in initiatives aimed at providing opportunities for groups that have historically been underrepresented in the advertising and television industries.
Through partnerships, outreach programs, and diversity-focused recruitment efforts, we strive to create an inclusive environment where everyone, regardless of background, can thrive and contribute to our collective success.

To further our dedication to DE&I at Wonderhood, we are proud partners of 'The Brokerage', a social mobility charity focused on empowering young people from working-class and ethnic minority backgrounds to pursue their career aspirations. Through this partnership, Wonderhood provides opportunities for young individuals to participate in immersive experiences lasting between 1 to 6 weeks, aimed at providing invaluable insights into the industry. We are excited about the impact of this initiative and remain committed to fostering an inclusive environment where everyone can thrive.
