TURN is led by Jessica and Rachel.

We keep a high-level view across every piece of work, shaping the creative approach, staying close to what's being delivered, and constantly checking it against what the client actually needs. Not just meeting expectations, but pushing the work beyond them.


But we don't just manage the work. We do it.


Between us, we bring years of hands-on experience in acting, actor coaching, facilitation, script development and programme design. We know what great delivery looks and feels like because 

we're in the room doing it ourselves.


That gives us a different kind of oversight. We can spot what's working, what isn't, where something needs sharpening, and where there's an opportunity to take an idea somewhere better.


Around us is a trusted network of some of the best people we've worked with over the years: experienced coaches, trainers, voice coaches, occupational psychologists and facilitators.


People we know. People we rate. People who are brilliant at what they do, and who are loyal, discreet and properly committed to the work.


Depending on the brief, we pull together exactly the right mix of talent, including:


Directors. Scriptwriters. Illustrators. Actors. Role players. Video producers.


No bloated teams. No off-the-shelf roster.


We lead it. We make it. We deliver it. And we bring in the right people when the work calls for them.
