Our inspirational entrepreneurs: Tighe Daniell

Meet Tighe Daniell the Managing Director of Teign Metal Finishes!

From his early days navigating the halls of Teign Metal Finishes (TMF) alongside his father, to assuming the pivotal role of Managing Director, Tighe's journey is a testament to his unwavering determination.

As a youngster, Tighe learnt the intricacies of metal finishing at TMF, turning every moment into a valuable lesson. His upbringing, marked by hands-on experiences and a passion for the craft, laid the foundation for his career trajectory.

At the age of 12, Tighe and his brother Brock relocated to rural France with their mother. Tighe pursued studies in accounting and electrical engineering, later becoming an electrician apprentice. Following his father’s unexpected death in 2016, Brock returned to England, but Tighe remained in France to complete his education. During college breaks, he continued working at TMF, honing his skills.

Tighe’s return to Devon marked a new chapter, where he and his brother Brock now spearhead TMF's operations, with Tighe serving as Managing Director, driven by a vision of growth and excellence for the company.

“We've faced unexpected challenges, stepping into our dad's shoes at a young age. But we're thankful for the opportunity and share the same ambition to grow and enhance this business.” – Tighe Daniell
