Senior Campaign Executive; PR

About TEAM LEWIS We are a global marketing agency that has gone from start‑up to multi‑national in little over two decades. Our success is due to a combination of factors. Talented people delivering award‑winning campaigns. Expanding client relationships into new markets or services. Making strategic acquisitions. TEAM LEWIS has won many prestigious awards, including Cannes Lions, PRovoke Media, ICCO, European Excellence, PRCA Digital, Digital Impact, and Global Digital Excellence.

At the heart of the business is TEAM LEWIS Foundation. In January 2021, there was a need to respond to the challenges the COVID pandemic brought to communities and charitable organisations. TEAM LEWIS saw that support was crucial, and change was needed to make that happen. Our local causes scheme was launched. Every member of TEAM LEWIS can nominate a local cause close to their heart to receive a cash donation.

In addition, nominated causes can also benefit from a donation in kind of expertise, time, and resources. In the past year, TEAM LEWIS has donated almost $2million to 445 causes around the world.
