We are delighted to welcome and introduce two new key members of staff to the Paul Gough team.
While companies and businesses might be feeling the pinch, the Paul Gough Group has been positively growing!
Laura Mackey has been installed as Marketing Manager for the Physio Rooms, with Nick Loughlin appointed Editor of the Media business.
Both will work across Paul’s organisation, which has interests in fitness, physiotherapy, media and property from its bases in both Hartlepool and Florida.
“These are uncertain times for a lot of companies, but it’s also an opportunity,’’ said Paul.
“Businesses have been hit of late, and a lot of good people are available in the market place who wouldn’t normally be out there and that’s through no fault of their own. It’s an opportunity for business leaders to make the most of and I’m delighted to have both Nick and Laura on board.’’
Laura, who completed her internship at a Central London PR agency before graduating from Newcastle University, has spent seven years with a global manufacturing company in Peterlee.
She is busy already implementing new ideas and plans for the Physio Rooms and said: “Our four practices have re-opened and are really busy and it is an exciting time to be joining the business.
“After speaking to Paul, I saw the opportunities on a business and personal footing. His enthusiasm is infectious. I’m looking forward to getting to know you all and see you in the clinic.’’
Nick moves after spending 27 years at The Northern Echo. He was Sports Editor from 1997-2020, before being appointed Teesside Editor at the start of this year and has covered around 2,000 Hartlepool United games over the years.
He said: “Paul used to write a fitness column for me back in the day and the opportunity to work for him is an exciting one.
“There’s positive plans in place here and I’m looking forward to bringing my experience as a journalist and editor to the team.’’
You might know Paul as an expert Columnist who writes weekly health articles for TWO of the North East's biggest daily Newspapers, The Northern Echo And The Hartlepool Mail, he is a regular Speaker at Industry Seminars around the globe and a Radio Personality, often heard on the BBC. Paul has been an expert guest on dozens of Radio shows and regularly interviewed in newspapers, magazines and trade journals all over the world, including the Guardian.
Paul’s background included working extensively in the Premier League with a Top Professional Football Team, and since quitting his job in Professional Football in 2007, his Physio Practice has become the fastest growing in the UK and biggest in the North East. So successful, that companies like BUPA, ASDA, The Vela Group And Coast & Country, repeatedly retain his Physio company's services to keep healthy their own staff and workforce. Paul Gough Physio Rooms is now a large multi-physio, multi clinic speciality practice in Darlington, Durham, Guisborough and Hartlepool.
