BETH ROBERTS JOINS TENTHREE.
18 January 2023

Keen-eyed, twinkle-toed editor Beth Roberts has joined the esteemed roster at tenthree. Roberts, who trained as a dancer back in the day, says: "Meeting Billy Mead, Quin Williams, Ellie Johnson, and Ed Hoadley was just like catching up with old friends. I'm not sure I've ever felt a group of people in the industry who feel more, well, like me.

"tenthree's just a bunch of genuine, nice, driven people who love what they do and feel so aligned with my own ethos," Roberts adds. "Being totally honest, they've pretty much always been the 'end game' since Chris Roebuck moved over there back in 2017 and Ellie being a partner was obviously a huge selling point."


One of her new old friends, managing director Ed Hoadley, says: "Beth is a force of nature who immediately after meeting you can tell is going to be successful. Her drive and enthusiasm for what she does is clear to see, and from our very first conversation I knew we shared identical values.

"For tenthree," Hoadley explains, "Beth's signing represents our commitment to working with talented creative people and growing their careers." Given the quality of her recent output, like this cut for director Daniel Liakh and the British Stammering Association, the future looks bright for Roberts.
