Ellis Williams Joins Showlite
Warm welcome to Ellis Williams as our new Head of Business Development
We are delighted to announce that Ellis Williams has joined Showlite as Head of Business Development, strengthening our leadership team and supporting the next chapter of our growth.
Ellis brings outstanding experience from across the live events and exhibitions industry, having held senior business development roles with Freeman, Human Built and Taylex Group/Visions Group. She has worked with some of the UK’s most recognisable brands and supported high-profile retail and lifestyle clients with pop-ups, bespoke builds and experiential activations.
In her new role with us, Ellis will focus on building long-term partnerships and nurturing relationships with organisers, agencies and brands that share our values and commitment to quality delivery.
"This role is about opening doors and building meaningful relationships with organisers and brands that understand what Showlite brings to the table — trust, experience and delivery. I’ve worked alongside Showlite for years and always admired the team’s professionalism and consistency. To now be part of that is incredibly exciting. I know the people, I know the products, and I have absolute faith in what we deliver."
