Steve Bellew
Steve started his career as a professional cricketer before joining the embryonic digital team at Argos just as they were about to launch their first transactional website, before joining Tesco as part of the team who launched grocery home-delivery. This experience gave Steve a fantastic grounding in e-commerce and direct sales disciplines, and since then, he’s used those skills in the retail, telecommunications, and automotive industries.
Steve also has a wide range of experience in advertising, customer management and strategy development, and has delivered many strategic change programmes for organisations such as Volkswagen Group UK and Volvo Cars UK. He enjoys helping clients to turn skill, ambition and passion into clear strategies that are underpinned by strong ethics and values.
Aside from his family, Steve’s other love is sport - everything from cricket and football, to golf, NFL and boxing.
