An experienced client care provider and event manager for a number of high-profile organisations across the London area, Tanya’s ability to manage the financial, travel, and lifestyle needs of the modern-day footballer is unrivalled. 

Tanya’s awareness of FA regulations and aptitude for logistics are crucial to the company’s continued success, and make her a vital component of the Midas team.

In the game of today, it has never been more important that our clients receive the required media coverage to stand out from the crowd. This responsibility lies with our PR and Media Executive Dan, who manages our social channels – raising the profiles of both Midas, and our players.

With more than 25 years of industry experience, our Finance Director Darren is integral to the long-term stability of Midas.

An AAT and CIMA qualified accountant, Darren initially started out as a footballer, with spells at both Southampton and Stoke as a schoolboy and apprentice respectively. It was during his stay at the latter where Darren found particular success, facing off with the likes of Gary Neville, Nicky Butt, and Paul Scholes, and lifting the Midland Youth Cup in two consecutive years.

Darren stepped away from football in his early twenties to enter the accounting industry, where he has since gained invaluable experience whilst working for a number of blue-chip companies. 

After seven years as Head of Finance at a global PR company, Darren decided to blend his accounting expertise and football knowledge by returning to the game, and has remained a key member of the Midas team ever since.

Experience and prestige are just two of the qualities that former England goalkeeper Dave brings to the Midas team. Alongside a successful nine-year spell with Wimbledon, Dave has played the sport at every level, with stays at the likes of Chelsea, Newcastle, and Nottingham Forest. 

That said, it was Dave’s time at Wimbledon where he attracted most attention, becoming the first goalkeeper to both save a penalty in the FA Cup Final, and eventually captain his side to their eventual win over Liverpool. Combine this with a place in Bobby Robson’s Italia ’90 World Cup squad, and Dave is established as one of the most experienced goalkeepers that the sport has to offer.

An UEFA A-Licensed goalkeeping coach, Dave has furthered his career post-retirement with coaching roles at Northern Ireland, Reading, and Fulham. With a wealth of experience and deep awareness of the game, Dave is a trusted mentor to our goalkeepers and outfield players alike.
