Bunker Media: Who Are We?

Who Are We at Bunker Media?

You’ve seen our projects, scrolled through our socials, and maybe even read some of our blogs. But have you ever stopped to wonder who we really are behind the name?

At Bunker Media, we’re more than just the work we make. We’re a collective of passionate creatives, innovative thinkers, and dedicated problem-solvers, all driven by a shared mission: bringing bold ideas to life and making a real impact for the brands we work with.

In this blog, we’re pulling back the curtain to share our story. We’ll dive into what we do, how we make it happen, why we’re so passionate about our work, when our journey began, and – most importantly – who we are as a team.

It’s time to get to know the heart of Bunker Media on a deeper level.

 


 

How We Began…

From the very beginning, our founder Pete had a deep fascination with the world of code, websites, and design. His curiosity drove him to dedicate his free time to mastering these skills and pursuing his passion. After leaving his role as a web designer, Pete decided to take a bold step and work for himself, seeking clients who needed websites built from the ground up. This marked the first ever project, a website for a company called AutoPrep. The first step toward what would eventually become Bunker Media.

Pete has always been a dreamer, someone who embraces action before worrying about the consequences. So, when he came across an ad for a studio space in his hometown of Dawlish, he didn’t think twice about renting it. The studio, with its arched brickwork ceilings that resembled a bunker, inspired our name. And so, Bunker Media was born.

Like any journey, Pete’s story had its share of challenges. Unfortunately, the studio didn’t work out for various reasons, and he had to give it up. But every ending is a new beginning. Pete and his partner Emma took this opportunity to buy a van, renovate it, and embark on a European adventure – an incredible way to recharge and find inspiration before diving back into the business world.

When they returned to England, Pete was eager to reignite his passion. He came across another studio space in Dawlish – the very office where Bunker Media now thrives! Determined to grow their vision, Pete convinced Emma to join the team, and together they poured their hearts into building a strong client base, refining their skills, and expanding their services.

Today, Bunker Media stands as a testament to their hard work, resilience, and creativity. What began as a dream has grown into a thriving business – proof that every challenge is a stepping stone to success.

Our Vision

Our vision has evolved and expanded alongside our business. Adapting to the needs of our clients and the ever-changing digital landscape. At our core, we are committed to delivering the highest quality of customer service and exceptional aftercare, regardless of the size or scope of the project. Every client, from startups to established brands, deserves the same level of dedication, creativity, and professionalism across all of our services.

Having started from nothing ourselves, we deeply understand the unique challenges smaller brands face in making their voices heard. This perspective fuels our passion to empower these brands, helping them rise above the noise and connect meaningfully with their audiences. We want to give them the tools, platforms, and strategies they need to not just speak but to scream their brand – loud, bold, and unapologetically authentic.

Our mission is to be more than just a service provider; we aim to be a partner in our clients’ success. By offering personalised solutions and a hands-on approach, we ensure that every brand we work with feels supported, inspired, and equipped to achieve its full potential. Together, we can turn ambitious ideas into impactful realities.
