Announced on Wednesday, integrated agency TMW Unlimited, part of agency group Unlimited, has hired Steve Garside as divisional head of new business and marketing

Garside joins from MRM, where he was head of new business & marketing.

Reporting to Chris Mellish, the CEO of TMW Unlimited and head of Unlimited's Marketing Division, Garside will be responsible for bolstering TMW Unlimited's new business and marketing efforts across its offices in London, Bristol and Reading.

Over the four years at MRM, Garside led new business resulting in 3 record-breaking years of growth in 2018, 2019 and 2020 adding over 50 new clients to their roster such as British Land, Three Mobile, Macmillan, Subway and Halfords.

Prior to his role at MRM, Garside was new business director at VCCP leading business development across social, CRM and retail advertising. Before joining VCCP, he was at Kitcatt Nohr, where he was head of new business and marketing.

Earlier this year Garside was instrumental in helping MRM win UK Agency of the Year at the Gerety Awards.

Garside began his career at EHS Brann (now Havas Helia). He is a winner of the DMA “Young Spark” award and is a former “Face to Watch” in Campaign.

Chris Mellish, CEO of TMW Unlimited said: “I am delighted to count Steve as a member of our team. He shares our belief that for clients to truly thrive in today’s complex marketing landscape they need ideas that work across the entire customer journey and must have human understanding at their core. His achievements speak for themselves, and I can't wait to see what he will bring to our next phase of growth.”

Steve Garside added: “The opportunity to work with Chris and the team at TMW Unlimited was just too good to not dive head-first into. The breadth and quality of the agency’s offering across the UK is something I can’t wait to shout about – you can probably guess that I’m very excited. I look forward to getting stuck in with the hugely talented people across the agency, and help some new brands create ideas that move people.”

TMW Unlimited recently announced they’ve been appointed as strategic marketing consultant of record for Abba's new concert show, Abba Voyage.
