Lincolnshire Cooperative is based in Lincoln. A co-op is owned and democratically controlled by its members. The members are the main people who benefit from the business. Co-ops vary in size, structure and even what type of work they carry out.

Co-ops with retail at their heart are probably the best known, but you can also find co-ops specialising in housing, farming, utilities and much more.

As one of the most profitable independent consumer co-operatives in the UK, we're proud to be able to offer a wide range of services from our family of businesses. Lincolnshire Co-op employs over 2,800 people throughout Lincolnshire, Nottinghamshire, Yorkshire and Norfolk and we're always growing.

As a co-operative, we're committed to the ethical principles which are important to our members, such as Fairtrade and sourcing products locally.

Carrington Communications is Lincoln's first truly digital PR agency, providing a range of PR services to startups and SMEs across Lincolnshire and the East Midlands. Founded in 2016, our fast-growing, results-driven agency now employs a team of PR professionals and works with more than 20 organisations.

We create campaigns that are built on great ideas, communicated to the right audiences and through the right channels to help its clients grow. We combine time-honoured PR and journalistic skills with the latest SEO techniques and industry know-how.

Carrington currently employs three PR professionals who bring a wealth of industry experience and expertise to the agency. Our team is solely made up of senior members of staff with backgrounds in broadcast journalism, international PR and digital marketing. We’re excellent communicators and writers who are dedicated to helping our wide range of clients to get their stories in the media and build relationships with the people that matter to them.

Being a young agency, the experience that individuals can bring to the team is key and industry experience or a degree-level qualification in public relations, journalism, marketing or similar is essential for PR executives. Journalism and PR are closely linked and two members of the team have Masters degrees in Journalism as well as undergraduate degrees in Politics and Law, going on to pursue careers in in-house PR, agency work and broadcast journalism before joining our team.

At Carrington, we're driven by PR that’s profitable. We love great coverage (and coffee!), have a great atmosphere in the office and take everyone's ideas on board. As a startup agency we work flexibly and there's plenty of room for growth professionally and personally which we believe is a real benefit for any new starter. Similarly, as a small team we have the luxury of working on clients that we enjoy and can put ourselves forward for tasks that enable us to play to our strengths.

We use the latest and greatest digital tools for both work and admin, creating a streamlined way of working that's simple, future proof and forward thinking. Being based in Lincoln is also great, because we're on the doorstep of other startups and long-standing businesses, while being able to travel easily to rural locations, larger cities and even London.

PR isn’t the glamorous show-biz profession people think it is, but it is a great industry for creativity. No day is the same in PR. It’s a great profession to get into for anyone looking to turn their curiosity and communication skills into a career. It’s a dynamic, fast-paced industry that keeps us on our toes.

PR is also unique because there are plenty of opportunities for growth and progression. Just as society and the media landscape is changing rapidly, the PR is also changing and evolving quickly too as we make sure that we can get our clients the best coverage.

This creates an exciting environment to work in, especially for people who love to have their finger on the pulse. Working for a range of clients means that in this industry, there’s plenty of opportunity to tap into current affairs which creates a real buzz.
