Gordon White - Managing Director
A little about Gordon ...
I’m the vintage member of the fatBuzz team, I founded the business back in 1986 – before most of the team were actually born! So, sometimes they listen to me and sometimes they ignore the ‘old guy’ in the corner, but I do like to think I still have some influence over the direction of the business.

A little about Marion...
A Director of fatBuzz, one of my biggest responsibilities is to look after the company’s finances. I’m also, arguably, the most important person in the office, as I’m the one who pays the salaries each month! Haha.
