Mandy Sharp, CEO and founder, Tin Man, commented: “As we grow, so does the scale and complexity of the briefs we receive. We’ve known Gav for many years and admired his work for afar. Now is the right time to bring him into the fold and bolster the award-winning strategic and creative offering here at Tin Man.”

The appointment comes as Tin Man reports 58% growth from 2021- 2022, and a headcount that has doubled in size since 2021.

Gavin Lewis added: “I’ve always enjoyed a friendly rivalry with Mandy and the team. I know first hand how tough they are to beat which means I’m delighted to be joining them”.
