Lawrence Collis

Joint Managing Director

Few who meet Lawrence for the first time would guess that inside this mild-mannered man, engaged to be married and living in leafy west London, beats the heart of an ex-DJ and club night organiser. But it does. Honest.

And though others may use these facts as proof of Lawrence’s “cool” (as I just have…) he himself is more than comfortable, knowing that his impending middle-age hasn’t blunted his connection to culture and consumer trends. His desire to constantly future-proof Shine and drive forward our creative offering makes sure of that.

Lawrence‘s experience covers a vast range of industries, from technology to entertainment to FMCG to travel. His achievements have been highly awarded throughout his career being previously picked out as one of PR Week’s 29 Under 29, highly commended for PR Week’s Young PR Professional of the Year and also the CIPR’s Outstanding Young Communicator.

His free time these days is largely spent moaning at long-suffering fiancée Fiona for never seeming to have a weekend spare anymore and wondering where the year went. Any free moment is spent baking bread and running.

See, who needs headphones and decks to be cool..?
