Gavin Devine began his career as a senior official in the UK Parliament, and has spent nearly 17 years in corporate communications. He was formerly CEO of MHP Communications and Newgate Communications, before founding Park Street Partners in 2018. He is a senior adviser to high-profile UK and multinational firms, particularly those facing regulatory or political challenges. “What he brings to the table is the capability and experience needed to see the big, strategic picture together with the enthusiasm to roll his sleeves up and get on with real work,” says one associate. Another client adds: “There are very few external consultants that I would with complete confidence put in front of anyone in my organisation, from the chief executive down, but Gavin is one. His combination of skills is rare and very valuable.”
