Meet The Team

Matt Jennis McDermott
Library Assistant & Sales
 
Matt is responsible for GAP Interiors photographer's submissions, quality checking the new houses as they come in before making the selections and ordering them for the website to give that real "walk through" feeling to the homes.

Matt works closely with Kirsty to create and distribute our interiors marketing mailers. He is the king of innuendo.

In his spare time Matt enjoys watching Netflix, having drinks with friends and going out to comedy shows and gigs. He loves Formula One Racing.

Iben Lund Gladman
Founder & Director
 
Alongside the daily management of the team here at GAP Interiors, Iben negotiates rates, providing quotes for our clients.

Iben works with photographers especially at the initial point of contact and is responsible for their contracts. She has a great eye for design, especially Scandinavian style.

In her spare time she loves spending time finding interesting objects and especially preloved items in antique shops, galleries and markets in Essex, Brighton or oversees - wherever she goes.

Trevor Jennis McDermott
Founder & Director
 
Trevor and Iben co-founded GAP Interiors in 2009. Trevor develops and maintains the bespoke website created for GAP clients, photographers and staff.

An important part of Trevor's work involves visiting clients and gathering briefs for their feature requirements.

He has spent more than 10 years restoring two old houses taking inspiration from the GAP Interiors collection but has a love-hate relationship with DIY.

In his spare time Trevor loves spending time in Edinburgh; his home-from-home.

David Gladman
Accounts & Bookkeeping
 
David handles all the payments, in and out of the company - he also fills in tax forms - LOTS of tax forms. But David had a very different job many years ago; he was a fashion model for 7 years, and worked for his family business in music retail and technology sales.

David has been with GAP since the start and has watched it - and his own workload grow.

He is still fascinated by the speed with which we can communicate with our clients across the globe and enjoys problem solving with different countries and systems.

In his own time, David plays the drums and enjoys gardening and walking his dog, Buddy.
