United Trust Bank

United, we go further

A full-spectrum brand roll out for one of the UK’s leading and award-winning specialist banks

THE CHALLENGE

Our client United Trust Bank had just undergone a full strategic rebrand with independent brand agency, Saboteur. With the brand positioning, visual identity, and tone of voice defined, they needed a delivery partner who could bring the new look and feel to life.

Working in close partnership with Saboteur, Blaze was appointed to rebrand their full suite of marketing communications, comprising over 300+ individual deliverables across digital, print, and internal channels ready for launch.  This was coupled with a centrepiece requirement of a high specification, secure and effective website which needed to be delivered in an extremely tight time window to meet the bank’s strategic objectives.

THE SOLUTION

Embracing the new brand guidelines and messaging framework, Blaze became an extension of the UTB team – interpreting, adapting, creating and delivering assets that would make the new brand tangible, consistent, and powerful.

From day one, this was a project built on close collaboration. To ensure accuracy, speed, and creative cohesion, we liaised daily with Saboteur and with multiple stakeholders across UTB’s marketing, compliance, and product teams.

We continue to manage UTB’s operational marketing requirements and online presence, further embedding the brand and supporting their growth objectives.

THE RESULTS

A BIG thank you to all of you for getting is to this point. I know how much hard work has been done to make it seem this seamless. The new website also looks really good! There is no doubt that United you have helped us to go further.
