Jo has joined Evolve to help to oversee the day-to-day logistics of the business as well as develop new opportunities going forward. Jo’s five years of experience in the industry have made her a valuable addition to the Evolve team and her expertise will be focused on providing a premium service to all our clients and speakers, ensuring that each event runs smoothly.

On joining, Jo enthused:

“I’ve been so impressed with the way Evolve operates and am delighted to help take it to the next level of success,” said Jo. “It’s only a young company but it has big ambitions and great growth plans, so I can’t wait to boost the business and to develop new opportunities in the coming months.”

The Nottingham-based celebrity talent and speaker’s agency was founded two years ago by  Benoit Lawrence who was joined by Amad Tababa as a Digital Director in July 2021. The focus is to allow well-known individuals in their fields to shed light on matters such as sport, diversity and inclusion, mental wellbeing, business and many more.

The agency has helped many clients gain access to a vast portfolio of celebrity talent and speakers including Astronaut Tim Peake, actor James Nesbitt, cricketer Michael Vaughan, and reality star Lauren Pope. The roster continues to grow and features the likes of motorsport legend Toto Wolff, SAS elite Colin MacLachlan, and Dragons’ Den’s Steven Bartlett, amongst others.

The appointment of Jo has been exciting for the whole Evolve team as we continue to build our roster of speakers. Co-founder Lawrence commented:

“We are thrilled to welcome Jo to the team, she has a great deal of experience particularly when it comes to ensuring all logistics are taken care of ahead of events and I am looking forward to seeing her develop into a key part of what we are aiming to achieve. We want to ensure that we provide a first-class service for all of our clients and Jo will certainly help us to do that.”

Evolve’s brand new, user-friendly, website makes it even easier to browse speakers over a range of categories, allowing clients easy access to a whole host of famous names.
