Lancaster-based Hotfoot Design has appointed Henry Gummett as a new Senior Designer.
Henry brings almost a decade of agency and in-house experience to the agency, having worked on brands such as Amazon and Sage, as well as more recently at Wax Lyrical, the UK’s largest home fragrance company.
Gummett trained as a graphic designer at Northumbria University and has experience in branding, editorial design, packaging, website design and motion graphics.
The new appointment means that Hotfoot now houses over 16 creative specialists working across the hospitality and leisure sector, public and third sector, luxury retail, B2B and tech.
Charlie Haywood, Founder and Creative Director at Hotfoot Design, said: “We’re excited for Henry to join our team of experts here at Hotfoot. We always look to appoint people who match our drive to bring outstanding creativity and strategic understanding to every client project. Henry fits that bill and will further strengthen what our fantastic team has to offer.”
Hotfoot won Creative Business of the Year Award at this year’s Red Rose Awards.
Henry’s appointment as Senior Designer is the latest recruitment since Emily Fell took on a full-time role at the agency.
Henry Gummett said: “I am very excited to be joining the great team at Hotfoot at such an exciting time. The agency has been going from strength to strength, and they have an impressive selection of clients who I am looking forward to meeting and working with.”
Recent work for Hotfoot in 2019 includes helping Thwaites to refresh their brand identity working as a design partner Lakeland Arts on their Windermere Jetty project.
The agency’s current client roster includes Lancaster University, Breathing Space, Lancaster Brewery, and Leonard Dews.
