We built Quilla because the agency model stopped working for clients long before it stopped working for agencies.
Fifteen years running teams inside agencies taught us one thing clearly: most of the value gets lost between the client and the work. Too many layers. Too much overhead. Too little accountability. We decided to do it differently.
Ben Quinney
Co-founder. Fifteen years running B2B marketing at senior level. Still does the actual work.
I spent fifteen years as Managing Director at a London agency, working with brands across B2B, retail, and professional services. I have run every discipline Quilla offers — not managed people who run them, actually run them. I know where agencies waste your money because I watched it happen from the inside.

Sarah Dillamore
Co-founder. Senior strategist who has seen every agency trick in the book — and built Quilla to be the opposite.
I have spent my career working across agencies and directly with ambitious businesses as a senior contractor. That independence gave me a perspective most agency lifers do not have — I have seen what good looks like, and what good-looking-but-pointless looks like. I bring that clarity to every client we work with.

When you work with Quilla, you work with us. Not an account manager who relays messages to a team you never meet. Ben and Sarah are on your business, start to finish.
When a project calls for a specialist — a performance media buyer, a technical SEO, a developer — we bring in the best person we know for that specific job. People we have worked with for years and trust completely. You get senior expertise precisely where you need it, without paying for it when you do not.
We work lean by design. Senior experience, a trusted network of specialists, and AI-powered systems built around how we work mean you get the output of a full marketing department without the overhead of hiring one.
We think in systems, not campaigns. The goal is always the same, build marketing infrastructure that compounds over time rather than activity that stops the moment you stop paying for it.
Always senior
Every client relationship is led by Ben or Sarah. No handoffs.
Specialists on demand
We bring in trusted experts for what the project needs. Nothing more.
No retainer padding
You pay for work that moves your business forward. That is it.

We are selective about who we take on. The work only works when both sides are genuinely invested.
