Spear’s Review

‘“Charming” will be written on his gravestone,’ says one client of David Hawkins, founder of strategic communications firm Cliveden Advisory.

Hawkins advises HNW individuals, corporates and governments on reputation management, media relations and strategic campaigns. This includes business development and brand building, and helping clients navigate complex markets and investor relations.

He tells Spear’s that the firm delivers ‘strategy, delivery and unique personalisation’, and that he works ‘intimately’ with clients, advising them directly on how to manage their public profile. Hawkins says he also prioritises hands-on engagement and personalised guidance, and is well equipped to support clients with complex and sensitive challenges while remaining deeply involved in the strategic and operational aspects of their communications strategy.

Cliveden provides discreet, practical counsel to clients across the world, including in the UK, the Democratic Republic of Congo and Madagascar.
