Stuart Bench

Joint Managing Director

My name is Stuart and I am the Joint Managing Director at Digital Distribution.

Injury has called time on my quest to be a Pro footballer ( I did make it all the way up to Sunday Morning pub league!!) so looking to get back into Golf, weather permitting. I recently became a Grandad and love my new title as well as giving her back when she gets "tired". I love any form of a holiday be it in a tent somewhere in the UK to Cruising around anywhere sunny and like any low-quality action movie that usually stars Jason Statham. I drink Tea at home and Coffee at work, weirdo!

I can still do a kickflip if someone lends me a skateboard

Ron Deprez

Joint Managing Director

My name is Ron and I am the joint Managing Director at Digital Distribution, (I'm the one on the left).

I love playing golf (10 if you’re asking), cooking and supporting Middlesbrough football club. I am a qualified engineer and moved down south some 25 years ago. I like real ale and never watch movies as they are too long! My favourite smell is cardamom.

Toxic by Britney Spears and fish finger sandwiches

Chris Hawkes

Customer Account Manager

I’m Chris, a customer account manager here at Digital Distribution.

I love watching the mighty Springboks play rugby and having a braai (that’s a BBQ here in blighty).

I also enjoy listening to music (especially 80’s bands), travelling to new countries and photography.

Guilty Pleasure

Flying RC model airplanes.

Will Barsby

Operations Director

Hi, I’m Will — Operations Director at Digital Distribution.

I’m a huge Formula 1 fan (race weekends are sacred). When I’m not working, you’ll usually find me behind a BBQ, experimenting in the kitchen, or out with a camera chasing the perfect shot. My background’s in design, and I actually built Digital Distribution’s very first website — a few evolutions ago now!

I’ve always had a strong connection to Chinese culture and cuisine, which led me to spend a year living in Guangzhou back in 2014 — still one of the best years of my life.

Oh, and if there’s a Jameson’s going… just the one ice cube, please.

Guilty Pleasure

Building unnecessarily complex Excel formulas that somehow still work.

Dan Buckingam

Asst. Warehouse Manager

Hi I’m Dan, and I’m part of the warehouse team here at Digital Distribution.

I’m a massive sports fan ranging from cricket to American football (it still annoys me they call it football) , I’m a huge Chelsea fan (for my sins) and try to get to a match anytime I can .

I’m a big music fan and like any genre being heavy metal or hip- hop

Guilty Pleasure

Musical Theatre

Liam Jordan

Warehouse Manager

I'm Liam and I'm the warehouse manager here at Digital Distribution.

I love sports (Up the Arsenal) and I'm a massive technology nerd. Music is a massive part of my life and you can catch me throwing myself around in a mosh pit at a Cannibal Corpse gig or enjoying a nice glass of whisky listening to some Frank Sinatra.

Guilty Pleasure

80's music

Josh Lee

Warehouse Assistant

Dad to a 2-year-old who keeps me on my toes 24/7, so any free time usually involves family, food, or football. I enjoy trying new restaurants, gaming when I get the chance, and convincing myself I’ll start eating healthy next week. Around the warehouse, I’m best known for running on Lucozade Sport and constant snacking.

Guilty Pleasure

Saying ‘just one more episode’ like I don’t have work in the morning

I find joy in cooking, especially Steak, insightful conversations and always seeking opportunities for learning.

Guilty Pleasure

Fishing without catching anything—basically just expensive meditation.

Jake Lock

Marketing Manager

Hi, I’m Jake — Marketing Manager at Digital Distribution.

I’m a proud member of the girl dad club. Weekends are usually split between Arsenal getting my hopes up (and then crushing them) and chasing that elusive sub-80 round on the golf course.

When I get the chance to slow things down, you’ll find me in Cornwall with my family and our dog Gus, enjoying the food, coastal walks, and the sense of calm it brings.

Guilty Pleasure

Watching and singing along to Disney films

Kady McVeigh

Web Developer

Hi, my name's Kady and I help develop and maintain our website.

I'm a massive animal lover, its my ambition to one day own a St Bernard, I'd call it Bernard. I love music, and singing terribly to it. I'm a massive Foodie! but I'm always on a diet (starts on Monday) I LOVE wine with friends, and after a few on a night out, I'll be the one seen dancing around the whole dance floor on my own!
