Cameron Frank Leslie (born May 1973) is a London nightclub manager. He and Keith Reilly operate the nightclub Fabric, which they co-founded in 1999.

Career

Leslie has a degree in International Hospitality Management. He worked in five-star hotels and then became a hospitality and leisure consultant with Deloitte.

In 1999, he started the nightclub Fabric with Keith Reilly. Leslie met Reilly when he, while working at Deloitte as a lending officer, helped Reilly with financing for a night club. As a result of them getting along so well, they partnered up.

In 2008 they opened a second club, Matter, at the O2, which closed in summer 2010.

In September 2016, Leslie appeared in front of the licensing board to defend Fabric's way of handling drugs and drug dealers at their club.
