About Us

Founded in 2002, before Zuck made his first buck

Founded by Tamara Littleton at the start of social media in 2002, Social Element was created to grow and nurture social communities for brands, whilst keeping them safe.

As a result, we have helped brands to effectively socialise with millions of people to form rich and valuable relationships that last.

Fast forward to today, we have evolved as social has.

We enable brands to show up and behave socially online and in real life, creating content and moments that are meaningful to people’s lives and feeds, whilst continuously pushing the boundaries of innovation.

We engage with people by sparking, finding and joining conversations that matter, and build stronger brand connections that drive advocacy and loyalty. All while keeping everyone protected behind the scenes.

Social Element is led globally by Linn Frost and
Ashley Cooksley, alongside a fully female Exec team.
