Guy Hawkins

Public Affairs Director — crisis response, public campaigns and government relations.

Guy Hawkins, Public Affairs Director, portrait

Calm leadership for the hardest weeks

Guy has managed public responses to investigations, outages, recalls and leadership transitions for fourteen years — first in government communications, now leading the firm’s public-affairs desk. His rule is simple: tell it early, tell it accurately, and tell it once.

He stands up a response unit within the hour, aligns every statement with the legal strategy, and keeps leaders focused on the decisions that end the crisis rather than the coverage describing it. After the headlines fade, his team delivers the recovery plan that rebuilds trust with evidence.

Focus areas

  • Rapid crisis response and war-room leadership
  • Public campaigns and coalition communications
