About | Sternberg Clarke

Adam Sternberg

Adam worked at a London Ad agency before cofounding Sternberg Clarke with Duncan in 1995. His favourite bookings are ones that involve opera or musical theatre, loves strong coffee, a good pun (and a bad one) and is terrible at accents but has a go anyway.

Duncan Clarke

Director Duncan was educated at New College Oxford and now deals with Sternberg Clarke’s accounts and contracts. Coming from a musical background, Duncan was formerly the resident pianist at a number of top London hotels. His interests include Baroque music, anything to do with large Hadron colliders, M theory and relational databases. Although popular all month long, Duncan is particularly popular on 28th of each month (payday). He also has a serious addiction to Galaxy chocolate.

Jane Moore

Since joining Sternberg Clarke in 2003, Jane has worked on hundreds of large scale events, film premieres and many many high profile corporate events and private parties including The Royal Academy Summer Exhibition Preview Parties (since 2006) and Cartier Rocks (China White enclosure at The Polo) to name but a few. She has a huge love of silly things in general and loves making up acts that previously didn't exist. Roller-skating, neon body-painted drag artists anyone?

Alice Chorley

Alice deals with our private and wedding bookings and so spends a lot of the day speaking to excited brides and (not so excited) wedding planners. Her clients include venues such as Le Manoir aux Quat'Saisons and Kensington Palace. She loves knitting, dancing, shopping and Nigella Lawson, and when she’s not overseeing weddings on a Saturday morning she watches Saturday morning kitchen.

Garreth Owen

Garreth takes care of Sternberg Clarke's Blog and Social Media presence as well as handling entertainment bookings whenever the mood takes him (which is usually when they involve writing sketches or trying on costumes). His passion for pun-riddled picture captions is only surpassed by his love of quality knitwear.

Favourite act: The English Gents

Samantha Rika

Samantha is our Speaker and Presenter expert as well as dealing with theming and costuming enquiries. One of Sternberg Clarke’s longest serving employees, she is the font of all knowledge when it comes to gourmet cooking and London bus routes (in a non train spotter/anorak way).

Ben Lloyd-Evans

Ben joined Sternberg Clarke in 2010 following his degree at The Royal Northern College of Music. He now deals with corporate bookings for clients such Lloyds TSB, Ernst & Young and The Wallace Collection. His areas of expertise include classical music, jazz, folk music and milk frothing (though we are yet to receive bookings for the latter). In his spare time, Ben plays the keyboard in a rather brilliant band called Feldspar and is pretty apt at putting Garreth’s face on celebrities’ bodies using Microsoft Paint.

Hayley Hannam

The youngest member of the Sternberg Clarke family, Hayley is in charge of our residency entertainment and assists Alice with her wedding enquiries. Organised and meticulous, she likes nothing better than colour coding things on her desk, putting little yellow post-it notes everywhere and organising work nights out. She is also excellent at baking, overreacts at magic tricks and is the (not so proud) owner of the loudest sneeze in the world.

Sophie McCarthy

Sophie joined the Sternberg Clarke team in September 2011 having studied Linguistics with Philosophy at York University where apparently she 'knew Charlotte, but didn't know her that well'... An avid dancer, Sophie brings her all-encompassing passion for limb waggling to bookings for clients such as Brand-Rapport, Goldman Sachs, The Paralympic Committee and Age Uk. Sophie went to the crossroads and sold her soul for a phenomenal Brownie recipe which she kindly shares with the team - but as a result of the trade, she has no reflection.
