Electric Circus

Electric Circus is a digital experience consultancy founded in 2015 and headquartered in Manchester, United Kingdom. The agency specialises in user-focused design for HR and talent touchpoints, helping organisations close the gap between the digital experiences employees have at work and the consumer-grade experiences they use at home. With a team of under 49 professionals, the agency operates with a minimum project budget of $10,000 to $25,000 and an average hourly rate of $150.

Electric Circus partners with ambitious HR and talent leaders to enhance employee experiences, ensuring solutions are simple, easy to use, and accessible across all devices.
