Lewis began his career in 2010 as a researcher with Granada Television, writing questions for University Challenge. He joined the Institute for Public Policy Research in 2011 before moving to the BBC in 2012 as a producer and reporter. He worked on BBC Two’s Victoria Derbyshire and produced the Radio 4 documentary Generation Right, which examined young people's political trends.
In 2017, Lewis became a Political Correspondent for Sky News, leading a two-year project touring the UK in the 'Lewis Lorry' to explore the impact of Brexit on various communities. After three years, he returned to the BBC as Policy Editor for Newsnight, contributing to election coverage and reporting on significant issues such as the war in Ukraine, the aftermath of the Grenfell fire, and the 2020 schools exam crisis, for which he was nominated for the Orwell Prize.
In September 2022, Lewis joined Global, where he co-presents a podcast and serves as Analysis & Investigations Editor, focusing on video journalism and breaking news for LBC. He also writes for the New Statesman magazine.
His book, Left for Dead? The Strange Death and Rebirth of the Labour Party, published in 2018, analyses Labour's political journey from Tony Blair's leadership to Jeremy Corbyn's tenure and its implications for the party's future.
Lewis studied History and Politics at St John's College, Oxford, becoming the first in his family to attend university. He has also studied French in Paris and Mandarin in Beijing. He resides in London.

Not necessarily. While the speakers listed on our website may not have worked with PepTalk in the past, they are recognized professionals in the industry and known to engage in similar events and engagements.
