Dominic Smales has announced that he will be stepping down as CEO of Gleam Futures, with immediate effect. 

Dominic, said: "11 years ago, with Costa Coffee as my office, I founded a talent business. I have always been obsessed by talent. Over the years we have published books, made movies, built brands, travelled the world, opened offices on three continents, made TV shows, broken records, laughed a lot, cried a bit, and everything in between. It’s been a joy and a privilege to be allowed to do all this with people I love spending time with. 

I am so grateful for how much I have learned from the people around me: The pioneering, unique talent, both past and present, my smart, tenacious colleagues, and our brave, visionary business partners. It’s these people that have fuelled this fascinating journey and helped build this amazing industry. I am ever more excited about its future as well as reflective on its past. It's time now for me to spend some more (!) time with my family, give attention to some exciting new projects, and see what the universe throws at me next."
