Former BBC News Correspondent Clarence Mitchell joins LEWIS PR as Director of Media Strategy and Public Affairs

Global communications agency, LEWIS PR, has hired seasoned former BBC journalist Clarence Mitchell as its new Director of Media Strategy and Public Affairs.
Clarence spent more than 19 years reporting for BBC Television and Radio News, including a stint as Royal Correspondent where he reported, amongst other things, on the aftermath of the crash that killed Diana, Princess of Wales. As a general News Correspondent he regularly covered conflict zones including the Balkans and Northern Ireland, as well as reporting many high profile, domestic crime stories. He spent several weeks in New York following 9/11.
After leaving the BBC, Clarence joined the Cabinet Office to become Director of the Government’s Media Monitoring Unit, overseeing its development and later transfer to the Central Office of Information (COI). Whilst there, he was seconded to the Foreign and Commonwealth Office and sent to Portugal to act as the FCO media handler for Kate and Gerry McCann after their daughter Madeleine disappeared in Praia da Luz three years ago. The McCanns later took Clarence on as their full time media spokesman, a position he retains to this day.
Most recently, Clarence ran the Media Monitoring Unit for The Conservative Party during the recent 2010 General Election campaign.
