The Model Centre (TMC) has appointed several new members to its team recently amid continued growth – its business has increased almost four-fold since 2018. Howard Smith (formerly of Bauer Media and Warners Group) has joined Tom Pearson and Christov Brooks-Brown (both ex-Hattons) on the TMC team, each bringing considerable knowledge of the industry.
Director Alex Yates recently explained in a BBC Radio Tees interview that the industry is thriving, with new people starting out in the hobby all the time. From eight members of staff before lockdown, TMC might have as many as 24 employees before this summer.
