About

I am a Business Director at Axon Moore - providing strategic advisory, consulting, and executive search solutions to C-suite executives, emerging leaders, and senior departmental heads. With a sector-agnostic approach, I partner with a diverse portfolio of organisations including private equity-backed businesses, privately held and family-owned companies, and large multinational corporations. This breadth enables me to deliver holistic, commercially aligned talent strategies that support organisational growth, transformation, and long-term performance. My work centres on aligning leadership capability with business objectives through comprehensive talent mapping, market and competitor insight, and data-led advisory. I support organisations in navigating complex talent landscapes, strengthening their ability to attract, retain, and develop high-impact leaders. With over 20 years’ experience in the HR and Operations arena, I bring both depth and breadth to my consulting approach. I work closely with C-suite leaders on a wide range of people-focused initiatives, helping to shape sustainable cultures, build high-performing leadership teams, and future-proof talent strategies. Backed by a strong and trusted network, my expertise spans behavioural analysis, executive assessment, market intelligence, and workforce planning. Every engagement is tailored, pragmatic, and outcomes-focused - equipping clients with the insight and confidence to make informed, impactful decisions aligned to long-term strategic objectives. 📧 lellis@axonmoore.com 📞 07341 000380

HR Consultant

  • I felt I knew a lot about MDH even before I joined. In fact, for most of my career I’d been playing tag team with them on the job boards. However, in the spring of 2011 I became one of their number with six years’ intense experience behind me. From the offset I’ve focused on HR and in my second consultancy practice I was tasked with setting up their first specialist division – no small feat during the recession.
  • A personable approach is absolutely vital in both recruitment and HR, so this sector provides the perfect synergy. At MDH I’ve found a haven of like-minded professionals, whose work is dedicated to this niche area. As an individual I’m very self-motivated, constantly striving to meet my personal goals. As such I find others who are committed to realising their own aspirations incredibly inspiring.
