Scott Simpson
Managing DirectorScott has been in the business of building and developing service-driven companies for over twenty years.
In the early part of his career, he was General Manager of Bill Fleming's chain of Tower Book Stores and established the business from scratch, ensuring that the brand became a major player in the industry virtually overnight. He also established Children's Choice Publications, a Scottish publishing house specialising in children's fiction. The business created the famous series of Creepers, selling over 4 million copies in the UK alone. Scott developed the business UK-wide and internationally, securing publishing rights in eleven countries, before exiting the business in 2003. Scott works with many clients internationally, from across Europe to the US, and regularly delivers seminars on marketing and brand strategy for The Chamber of Commerce and other business development agencies.
Scott has worked in marketing communications for over twelve years and during that time has worked with numerous high profile clients, including National Australia Group, Kwik Fit, Abbey National, Parcel Force, Clerical Medical, Odeon Cinemas, Jurys Hotels, Salon Services, Historic Scotland, Optical Express and Which?. His expertise lies in bringing genuine commercial understanding together with an in depth understanding of brand and marketing strategy in order to help clients achieve their corporate objectives.
He launched Voltage in 2005 to deliver a niche service which had previously been lacking in the marketing industry. Having recognised that what many clients needed was not simply creative expertise but actually well-rounded marketing solutions to business challenges, Scott brought together a team of highly experienced individuals who are able to bring brands and marketing to life.
His role within the business remains one of defining and communicating its direction, leading and motivating the team through consistent and steady growth and supporting clients' through the entire marketing communications process.
