11  June  2015        Personal  Reference  for  Julie  Lewis  by  Giles  Lee        Dear  Sirs    I  worked  with  Julie  from  her  appointment  in  September  2010  to  the  newly  created  role  of  Head  of  Talent  &  Performance  at  Bray  Leino  until  her  departure  in  January  2015.    Julie’s  mandate  when  she  joined  us  was  to  drive  strategic  change  across  the  whole  HR  agenda.  On  the  one  hand  this  involved  developing  and  implementing  a  completely  new  employee  engagement  methodology  throughout  our  organization  (400+  people).  On  the  other  hand  it  involved  driving  savings  (e.g.  In  recruitment),  to  fund  improved  training  &  employee  engagement  programmes.  Julie  was  also  heavily  involved  in  optimising  organisational  structures  across  the  group  –  a  fundamental  role  in  a  people/service  business  such  as  ours.    And  Julie  performed  all  of  the  above  extremely  well,  using  her  first  class  influencing  skills,  strategic  insight  and  strong  work  ethic  to  drive  through  a  very  busy  and  diverse  change  agenda.  She  was  an  invaluable  member  of  the  Senior  Team  and  a  key  advisor  in  all  related  Board  Room  debates.    In  my  opinion  Julie  would  be  an  asset  to  any  business.      Yours  faithfully          Giles  Lee    Giles.lee@btopenworld.com
