New year, new faces: meet our latest Reckless recruits

As 2025 comes to life, we’ve geared up for the new year with a fresh burst of energy, talent, and expertise. Our newest team members have hit the ground running, and they’re already making waves. Let’s dive in and see who’s who…

Laura joins us with over 15 years of experience in performance marketing, client leadership, and digital transformation. Her career highlights include leading campaigns for more than 30 brands, running her own consultancy, and heading up performance at an e-commerce agency in Salford Quays.

Reflecting on her decision to join Reckless, Laura says, “Reckless hugely appealed to me for its passion for creativity, innovation, and a people-first culture that truly impacts results. I’m looking forward to driving client growth, building relationships, and contributing to the team’s continued success.”

Outside of work, Laura is a self-confessed bookworm who has read over 185 books this year, a Shakespeare enthusiast, and a mum of three who has a knack for embarrassing her kids with a hula hoop. Fun fact: she’s hidden all Ed Sheeran tracks on her Spotify.

Fraser discovered his passion for marketing while training as an accountant and hasn’t looked back since. With over seven years of PPC experience, he has worked with clients across the UK, US, Europe, and Latin America in industries as diverse as construction, pharmaceuticals, and even microwave repairs!

A specialist in Amazon Seller Central, Fraser is particularly proud of taking a client’s revenue from £220k to £500k in just two months. “I see huge potential in the Amazon platform and am keen to lead the charge in building out the service offering for Reckless.”

After hearing great things about the agency through his network, Fraser was inspired to join the team. His enthusiasm for exploring new opportunities and driving results makes him a fantastic addition.

Ashley started building websites in high school using Dreamweaver and went on to earn a degree in Computer Science at Chester University. Since then, he’s gained experience managing Magento sites, creating WordPress projects, and freelancing to explore new technologies.

He was drawn to Reckless for its focus on complex builds and custom software. “I thought this would definitely be more interesting than the simpler WordPress sites I’ve been building. I’m particularly excited to deepen my skills in Laravel and have really enjoyed using it so far.”

Ashley brings a creative and methodical approach to web development. He’s also a second dan black belt in martial arts, so, gentle suggestion: better be nice to Ash!

Steph brings over a decade of diverse marketing experience to Reckless, spanning social media, content, influencer and brand strategy, as well as studio and account management. She has honed her skills at agencies across the North West and London, as well as in-house roles with international fashion brands, the NHS, universities and e-commerce businesses.

Her well-rounded expertise gives her a unique perspective on agency life, both as part of a team and when working with external partners.

“I’ve been a silent stalker (in the nicest possible way!) of Reckless since the beginning, and really admired the way they have scaled both in terms of the impressive roster of clients they choose to work with and also their ability to attract, and more importantly keeping hold of, great talent. I love that the team is at the heart of everything they do. Working hard and playing hard are equally as important,” she shares.

When she’s not in the studio, Steph loves travelling and exploring new places with her husband and son. Most recently, they enjoyed a two-week adventure in Australia. She also relaxes with reformer pilates and admits to having a slight mug obsession (owning more than she could ever use in a month).
