  Sam Evans (He/Him)

  Meet Samuel Evans: Gather Social’s founder, Meta-data wizard, and a man who treats the airport lounge like his second office.

  As our MD and resident "Truman Burbank", Sam provides the vision while the team handles the heavy lifting. He sticks strictly to the Think, Make, Market, Measure guide, famously noting it’s the reason he hired such a talented team in the first place.

  Meet Amy Young: Gather’s Head of Operations and Marketing, and a natural leader who makes the complex look easy.

  Known for her bubbly personality and effortless style, Amy is the ultimate "easy-to-talk-to" pro who keeps our biggest clients on track. Whether she’s orchestrating on-location shoots or building disruptive ad campaigns, she handles every detail with the precision of an F1 pit crew.

  Shannon Pursey (She/Her)

  - Written by Ella

  Meet Shannon, Gather’s Account Manager and our resident "Autumn Queen."

  Whether she’s making a presentation look Pinterest-perfect or a meeting feel cosy, Shannon’s aesthetic eye is unmatched. She doesn't just meet expectations, she hand-knits them a jumper and adds a gold-foil finish.

  When she’s "OOO," Shannon is likely romanticising her life with a DIY craft project, a library stack, or a local community event. A true believer in the "handmade" lifestyle, she brings that same thoughtful, "can-do" energy to every client she supports. Equal parts style and sunshine, Shannon is the nicest person you’ll ever meet.

  Brooke Skelton (She/Her)

  - Written by Sam (aka Amy!)

  Meet Brooke: our resident organisational queen, client-whisperer, and the person most likely to be found hitting a PB in the gym before your first coffee.

  As one of our Account Managers, she doesn’t just manage briefs; she nails them, combining a forward-thinking strategy with the creative flair needed to keep our clients ahead of the curve. Whether she’s plotting the next big campaign or keeping projects running at F1 speed, she ensures everyone stays happy, and every deadline is met.

  When she’s not in the office (or the squat rack), she’s likely cheering on Charles Leclerc or out on an adventure with her Golden-doodle, Scooby.

  If you hear laughter and see a camera lens, Aimee isn’t far away.

  She arrives at every shoot bursting with fresh ideas and a strategic eye for what will truly pop on screen, effortlessly bridging the gap between visionary videography and sharp, seamless editing.
