In response to continued growth and client demand, Luminos has expanded its research team with the appointment of two new team members – Sebastian Kerridge and Sam Fulton.

Sebastian joins as Research Partner, bringing a wealth of experience in talent insight. He has worked with award-winning organisations across a diverse range of industries and geographies, delivering high-impact research and strategic intelligence. His experience of working both within and outside of the industry to drive innovation and efficiencies through the use of AI and digital development will be invaluable to the Luminos team as it continues to deliver data-driven talent solutions to clients.

Sam joins as Research Consultant, transitioning from a background in marketing. His appointment reflects the business’ commitment to investing in the future by nurturing new talent through a structured onboarding and development programme. Sam will be supported with tailored training, mentoring, and a clear career pathway designed to build expertise in talent research.

Natalie Douglass, Founding Director at Luminos, explains:
