Seymourpowell Appoints new Client Services Director

Leading global design and innovation company Seymourpowell appoints Paul Foulkes-Arellano as Client Services Director. Paul will be responsible for growing Seymourpowell’s Client Services Team to better meet the needs of our clients.

Foulkes-Arellano began his career in the design industry in 1989 at P I Global, where he worked as European Marketing Manager until 1992.

After several years working in Mexico initially as a marketing consultant and latterly running a footwear design and development agency, Paul returned to UK brand design joining Design Bridge in 1998.

In 2000, Paul was appointed Managing Director at drinks branding agency, Wren & Rowe.  Over the past 11 years he worked closely with companies such as Carlsberg and InBev, as well as highly successful national companies such as Stock Spirits of Poland, and European Drinks of Romania. Paul is also chairman of the design and packaging judging panel of The International Spirits Challenge.

After over a decade working on beverages, Paul was keen to work on a broad range of innovation projects, and was fascinated by the breadth and depth of work at Seymourpowell.  Paul will work on expanding the client services team in order to cover Seymourpowell’s vast range of clients, both by sector and geographically.

Foulkes-Arellano commented, “It was a logical step for me to join one of the world’s most revered design and innovation companies, and to work across a huge range of disciplines from ethnography to technical implementation, all focused on world-beating innovation. I’m delighted to join a team of such intelligent thinkers.”
