TPF picks up senior pair from Williams Lea
TPF Group has further bolstered its senior team, plucking two account managers from Williams Lea.
Damian Sorgiovanni and Dominic Harris will join five-year TPF "veteran" Richard Wills to form a three-strong senior account director team reporting to group client services director Catherine Burke.
The moves mark a month of high-profile hirings at TPF, following ex-Polestar managing director Paul Seaborn's appointment as IT director in June.
Burke said: "The fact that TPF continues to attract a steady stream of such talented people suggests that we are succeeding in our aim to become the industry's employer of choice."
Sorgiovanni, who had been an account manager at Williams Lea since 2005, will head up six accounts in his new role, while Harris will use his print management experience to help grow TPF's business process outsourcing offerings.
Both new starters lauded TPF's culture of expansion as key to opting for the new roles.
Harris said: "One of the things that appealed to me about joining TPF is that it is such an agile and fast-moving business.
"In particular, TPF has shown itself able to act quickly and effectively to gain competitive advantage while other companies seem stuck on the starting blocks.
Sorgiovanni added: "The organisation is in a stage of rapid growth with numerous wins and I am already enjoying being part of that boom."

Williams Lea/ communisis/ HH associates etc are the insecure over-achievers of the print management world- their business model is parasitic on their supply base and therefore unsustainable. The brightest people within see this & are beginning to leave. TPF/ ourselves/others, are working differently to these & developing our own, leaner styles of offering the customer service without the cost. At WEBMART we look at it as "print management 2.0" the same service but a step-change in the way it is delivered, working with suppliers as a no-cost sales-service to them in retun for the very best price( by targettng not by negotiating) & giving customers therefore the best-of-breed print services at a much, much lower cost.
The best brains in the industry will decide which business model they want to invest their future in & this will be the deciding factor in who succeeds & who fails in PM (and print) the next 18 months. The battle for hearts & minds has begun & in this battle being the best is much, much more important than being the biggest.
