Leyla Reveillon
Foundation Governor
Leyla is currently working at Egon Zehnder, an executive search firm, as a Research Analyst. She began her role in 2022, after finishing her bachelor’s degree at Cambridge University. She also became a Freeman of the Leathersellers’ Company in 2023 and has since been involved in their charity work as a way to give back to the community, which she thoroughly enjoys.
Prior to joining Egon Zehnder, Leyla worked for various companies since the age of 17. She began her career in retail and hospitality as a customer sales assistant and as a waitress. She continued her career in retail until she went to university.
At the University of Cambridge Leyla read History and Politics at King’s College, which are both still passions of hers. During her three-year course she developed her knowledge and interests in both fields and achieved a 2:1 in her final year. She continues to spend lots of time reading historical books and ensuring she is always up to date with the latest politics.
Prior to University, Leyla studied both GCSEs and A-Levels at Prendergast School, where she discovered her interests for politics and history and subsequently decided upon her degree.
