CEO Tim McCloud said: “When we launched TMC in 2006, our aim was to create a business that delivered measurable, positive impact for clients in complex sectors. Twenty years on, we’re proud to have built a team of 45, supporting organisations at the forefront of healthcare, technology and innovation. Our growth has been driven by long-term partnerships, strategic thinking and a focus on quality.”

Dr. Jan McCloud, chief operating officer and healthcare director, added: “Our expertise in healthcare and medical science has shaped how we operate as an agency. We understand the importance of evidence, accuracy and credibility, and how to translate that into creative, effective communications. This approach has enabled us to support clients through regulatory change, product launches, reputation management and long-term brand building.”

Headquartered in Congleton, Cheshire, TMC continues to invest in its North West base, most recently launching a professional podcast studio at its offices to strengthen its content, thought leadership and digital engagement capabilities.

TMC’s work has been recognised with recent award wins, including Best Not-For-Profit Campaign – Non-Charity at the 2025 Prolific North Marketing Awards for the agency’s It Does Matter campaign, addressing violence against women and girls, with Thames Valley Police. The campaign has now been adopted by 18 different police forces all across the UK.
