Our team

ThoughtShift was founded by AJ Coutts and Helen Trendell in 2011. Meeting in the early 2000s as the first ever digital marketing team members at a global insurance company, the pair moved from London to Brighton to start ThoughtShift from Helen’s spare room. Now with a clutch of prestigious awards honed from over 300 proven processes and based on more than £1 Billion in proprietary sales data, ThoughtShift has grown to a highly experienced team of digital experts.
