WE ARE A B CORPORATION

Since 2017, Gong has been part of the B Corporation movement, a community of companies that are using business as a force for good. We were one of the first communications firms to recognise the importance of, and value of, B Corp and over the last five years have used our platform to help raise awareness about the benefits of being a B Corp.

Gong recertified as a B Corp in 2021, improving our impact score to 91.7 thanks to our work in two core B Corp pillars: environment and governance. We also donate 300 hours each year to pro-bono work for worthy causes.

You can see the type of work we get up to in our 2021 Impact Report and our 2020 Impact Report.

MEET THE TEAM

The B2B team at The Wilful Group is a friendly, supportive, and talented collection of superstars across the PR, marketing, design and digital fields. We come from hugely broad and varied backgrounds, in terms of origin, experiences, skills and expertise.

We enjoy regular socials; whether that’s our summer party at Henley Regatta, a spontaneous comedy night at a secret gig or an ad-hoc, delicious dinner at our local Lebanese.

We also love our morning yoga sessions (run by Account Manager and qualified instructor, Annabel), lunchtime strolls around our Marylebone neighbourhood and drinking Prosecco (or mocktails) at the end of a busy Thursday afternoon. We relish chats about politics, the environment and finance and, of course, Love Island.
