Diversity and inclusion is woven into the fabric of his approach to building world class teams.
As a trusted advisor, Lewis partners with world-renowned brands to ensure that the next generation of creative and corporate leaders are picked and primed to become the future custodians of some of the most respected and revered design-led businesses and institutions this century.
The relationship between Chief Executives and Creative Directors, and the essential synergy between the commercial and creative arms of a successful business, is a particular speciality at Lewis Alexander. It is this approach and insight that informs recruiting and placing creative talent and leadership candidates in sectors that include fashion & luxury, design, art & culture, consumer and entertainment.
