Managing Director of the Year Awards 2025

David Myles’ leadership is rooted in clarity, values, and culture. Throughout 2025, he led Heartbeat UK with a clear-eyed focus on operational excellence, transparency, and professional standards. Emphasis on collaboration across departments, an inclusive performance culture, and flexible but accountable remote work practices have strengthened employee engagement and morale. “Heartbeat isn’t just a name—it’s our rhythm,” Myles explains. “Our team moved in sync through adversity this year. From our production floor to our project managers, there’s a belief in what we’re doing and how we’re doing it.” Strategic Investment and Long-Term Thinking Amid the market turbulence, Heartbeat UK doubled down on key areas: investing in digital processes, enhancing modular capabilities, and entering early-stage dialogue with contractors and developers to secure projects at design phase. These moves ensured not only short-term stability but future pipeline growth. “Long-term thinking helped us weather the short-term storms,” adds Myles. “And that’s a credit to the strategic resilience of our leadership team, as well as the trust placed in us by our clients.” Heartbeat UK’s Commitment to its Projects Heartbeat UK is devoted to providing only the best service to its many clients, regardless of the size of the ask. From the Easy Hotel to Canvas Student Accommodation, work with M&S and NEXT, Travelodge development and Newcastle 1 Student Accommodation, and so much more, the business streamlines the process every step of the way, and we’re proud to highlight David’s contribution to the company’s accomplishments. With so many examples of iconic brands utilising Heartbeat UK’s services, and including those lesser known establishments, the company has truly made a name for itself in its industry. Recognition That Reflects a Collective Win While the MD of the Year 2025 award rightly recognises David Myles’ leadership, he’s quick to share the honour with his team. “This award reflects the entire Heartbeat team—from production to planning, logistics to leadership. 2025 wasn’t an easy year. But every challenge was met with integrity, skill, and heart.” As the business looks to 2026 with cautious optimism and renewed ambition, Heartbeat UK remains a beacon of excellence in the UK manufacturing and interior fit-out space. Guided by Myles' vision and underpinned by a team that exemplifies professionalism and passion, the company is well placed for another year of impact and innovation.
