Tom Heaton shared this☺️ I had an incredible day in Birmingham this week after being asked to speak at Gather (cc Birmingham Design). Massive thanks to Luke Tonge and the team for the kind invitation. I was amongst the hugely talented DR. ME, Caroline Dowsett and Sana Iqbal—I personally left the evening feeling inspired, energised and lucky to have been in their company. I spoke about the importance of embracing every single opportunity and looking for those special serendipitous moments in both my process and my career—most recently with my time at PHMG and how moving from agency to in-house has been such a creatively rewarding experience. Thank you so much to everyone who came! 📸 by Thom Bartley

Tom Heaton reacted on thisTom Heaton reacted on thisLast week, I closed an unforgettable chapter in my career as I said goodbye to PHMG after three incredible years working in the Communications team. As one of my first corporate roles, PHMG has been instrumental in shaping the start of my career. While it’s never easy to leave behind a place that’s become so familiar, I am incredibly grateful for everything I’ve learnt, the skills I have developed, and the opportunities given to help me grow. Most importantly, I have had the pleasure of working alongside some truly intelligent and talented people who have made the experience so memorable ✨ A special thank you to my team, the Design & Comms team (past and present), for being a family away from home and for supporting, encouraging, and helping me learn every step of the way; thank you for making my time here so rewarding and I will always look back on this chapter with great appreciation Catherine Thompson Daisy-May Sharpe Madison McGowan Simon Gandy Jack Cresswell Katy Hartley Ellie Jones Tan Nguyen Hannah Carter Catherine Chialton Stephen Townsend Michelle Murray Toby Burkill Tom Heaton Lauren Russell Raeha Naeem Jenni Simpkin Alison Gilman Simon Cherry Adam Turner, MA ❤️🩹 Now for the fun part… next week, I’ll be starting an exciting new chapter as an Internal Communications Executive at City Football Group.

Tom Heaton reacted on thisTom Heaton reacted on thisEarlier this year PHMG received the King’s Award for Enterprise in International Trade. This week we marked that achievement by hosting Mrs Diane Hawkins, the Lord-Lieutenant of Greater Manchester, at our Manchester headquarters. Across the visit, Gareth Watt and Stephanie Kate Gilchrist introduced colleagues from different departments and shared how our Manchester operation underpins international delivery. It was an opportunity to highlight the commercial progress we have made, including receiving the award on our 27th anniversary as a business, as we expand our client base and grow demand for our products in markets around the world. I was pleased to formally receive the award scroll alongside Claire Davies, Employee Trust Director. As we look beyond this milestone, our priority remains clear: continue to build on that international growth, deepen our presence in key territories and keep creating long-term value for clients, colleagues and stakeholders.

Tom Heaton reacted on thisTom Heaton reacted on this2 years ago, I first stepped into The Manchester Metropolitan University for my first day on the Master's in Graphic Design and Art Direction. Motivated to learn and develop more as a Designer, but with no real aim or focus, but to embrace the opportunity and experience. Now finished after some hard work, great experiences, and trials and tribulations, I reflect on an incredible past 2 years. It has challenged me and my practice. I have experimented with new directions and skills. Pushed myself out of my comfort zone, and found confirmation on my own philosophy on what Design is and can be, and ultimately my place within this powerful and world-changing field. Around 18 months ago, I remember sitting in a lecture theatre at Manchester School of Art at the start of the Synthesis project that would become the final piece of the Master’s. John Walsh, my tutor at the time, was reeling off examples of projects that I may want to consider when he mentioned a research project. This became the spark for my own project, and a challenge and direction I would not have dreamed I was capable of before starting the Master’s degree. But now I have completed a project that I am truly proud of. And reflecting on the amazing experience that I am truly grateful for. Thank you to all those who have supported me during this time. Heartfelt thank you to all the staff, lecturers, and students of Manchester Metropolitan University. I hope this isn’t the end of my time at MMU, and that I will get the opportunity to take part in MMU’s work in the future.
