Manchester-headquartered KOMI Group has appointed Sam Lenehan as its new growth and strategy director.
Lenehan has worked at the social media, marketing, and licensing business as a non-executive director since 2020. He now joins the company on a full-time basis from his role as a director at regeneration company Urban Splash.
In his new role at KOMI, he will lead the business in a number of areas including refining its growth strategy, its governance and structure, and mergers and acquisitions.
Lenehan (pictured, centre) said: “Making the permanent move to KOMI was a huge decision, as was leaving Urban Splash after so many years.
“My aim is to now take the lessons that I’ve learnt and apply them to KOMI as it ramps up for its next phase of growth.
“We are on track to expand even further this year as we continue to secure exciting new clients and build new exciting brands.”
Andrew Trotman (pictured, left), managing director and co-founder, added: “Sam is one of the most respected young professionals in the North West so we are delighted that he made the leap to join us on a permanent basis. As a non-exec he had already added huge value to the business but having his focus full time will, I’m sure, be a gamechanger as we prepare for and enter into our next phase of growth.”
The company recently doubled its office space at Beehive Mill in Manchester after growing its headcount to 50.
