OnTheMarket’s longstanding head of marketing has left the portal.
Patsy Walton was head of marketing at OnTheMarket since 2014, meaning she has seen the brand grow from its launch to its public listing in 2018 and rebrand in 2021.
She announced on LinkedIn last week that she has decided to take a break from work.
Walton said: “It’s been such a privilege to work for OnTheMarket and I’ve been lucky to work with some amazing people and we should all be very proud of what we’ve achieved together.
“I’ve decided it’s the right time to take a break from work. For the next few months I have planned some long overdue travel adventures and to have time to think about what I want to do next.”
Paying tribute to Walton, Jason Tebb, chief executive of OnTheMarket, said: “On behalf of the team at OnTheMarket, I want to thank Patsy for her contributions to the company.
“As head of marketing, she was a vital part of the team that oversaw our launch, our admission to London Stock Exchange in 2018 and more recently, our full rebrand in 2021. We greatly appreciate all Patsy’s hard work, dedication, and support throughout his time. We wish her all the best in her future endeavours.”
Walton has been succeeded by Tom Gough, who joins the firm with a wealth of knowledge gained in a number of industries, including gaming and financial services.
As the new head of marketing, he brings more than 20 years’ experience across both digital and offline channels to OnTheMarket.
He said: “Ever since I met the leadership team at OnTheMarket, I have been impressed with the passion and knowledge they have for the business, the industry and the agents we serve.
“Since joining the team, I am very happy to see that this passion spreads throughout the business. We have lots of great plans and I look forward in helping to implement them going forward.”
