Meet Lloyd

Hello! I’m Lloyd—a British-born, New York-based brand strategy and marketing consultant specializing in crafting compelling strategies for culturally driven brands.

Currently, I lead marketing and communications strategy for Red Bull in the strategic New York market, driving brand engagement and growth through innovative storytelling in sports and culture. I’ve built and oversee a first of its kind team combining expertise in content, creator marketing, and media relations, fostering high performance through continuous coaching and collaboration.

With 15 years of experience, my career spans iconic brands like Converse, acclaimed creative agencies, and major sporting events, including the London 2012 Olympic Games. This diverse background has sharpened my strategic thinking, creative execution, and ability to deliver measurable impact.

Curious, collaborative, and entrepreneurial, I specialize in solving complex business challenges with strategy, creativity, and innovation - most recently partnering with brands like Klarna, Acast, and Discogs.

If you're a business, brand or agency aiming to make an impact in culture, sports, or beyond, let’s connect—I’d love to chat! You can reach me at lloyd (at) lloydgevans.com
