FutureKings appoints Andrew Bing as Chairman and appoints Karen Pennington to the board.

We’re thrilled to announce that Andrew Bing has joined us as Chairman.

Following our successful MBO in December, Andy has joined as Chairman to bring his extensive experience to our newly formed management team. We’re also delighted to share that Karen Pennington, our Head of Operations, joins the board after 9 years of exceptional service and commitment to the agency.

Andy was a co-founder of Loch Duart in 1999, which he grew from scratch and sold in 2021. His experience in brand-building, both in the UK and internationally, is perfect for the ambition of FutureKings as we look to grow our team and build on our exciting portfolio of clients, such as Heidi, M&G, CariFit, Chetwood Bank, The Wave, FlexJet and Engage Hospitality.

When I approached Andy last year to discuss this opportunity, the timing was clearly perfect. Andy wants to spend his time working with young, ambitious and fast-growing companies using his sales, marketing and growth strategy experience to help them prosper, which is exactly the sort of client profile we aim to work with.

As we’ve demonstrated over the years, our programme-led approach to helping founder-led companies and SMEs grow using brand as a business tool, produces results. 

We can now offer even more with the benefit of Andy’s experience at board level, as well as having his expertise on hand to share with our clients.

The appointment has additional meaning to me, as Andy was a long-term client of my late father, Tim Mott, who sadly passed away last October. I know it would mean a great deal to Dad that Andy and I are working together.
