The agency has also announced the promotion of Financial Controller James Oehlcke to Group Finance Director. Oehlcke trained at Arthur Andersen and joined Channel Four on qualification. He joined LEWIS from The Economist, where he held senior roles at the flagship publication.

In addition, Oehlcke will be supported by the appointment of Greg Tulett as Strategic Finance Director. Deloitte-trained, Tulett has five years' experience in operational finance within the LEWIS Group of companies. In his new role he will focus on acquisitions and strategic projects.

"This is a significant stage in the agency's history, as we plan for the next phase of growth," said CEO Chris Lewis. "With no debt and substantial cash reserves, the Group is emerging from the recession in a strong position. I'm delighted to have such an experienced finance team supporting us."

"The company has 23 legal entities and operates in 38 offices throughout the world," said Oehlcke. "This is a challenging accounting task, especially in a growing business. My mandate is to look for strategic acquisitions and I couldn't wish for a more experienced or talented player than Greg Tulett to work with."
