Tom Lees

Managing Director

Tom is a recognised expert in policy, thought leadership, reputation management, corporate communications, public affairs and running high-impact campaigns.

After a decade working in corporate communications and public affairs, he was fed up. Fed up of mediocre consultancies, which oversold, were overstretched and simply weren’t delivering what they promised - that’s why he created Bradshaw Advisory.

Previously he was the Global Head of Corporate Affairs at the FTSE 100-sized consultancy and construction company, Mace Group. While he was there the company’s turnover grew from £1.5 to £2bn, and profits rose by 150%. He was influential in helping the company to secure some of the largest projects and programmes and position itself as a trusted expert with government and clients.

Prior to this he worked for a NYSE-listed engineering company, for former Secretary of State for Health, Rt Hon Baroness Virginia Bottomley, and the Rt Hon Michael Gove MP when he was Secretary of State for Education.

He has a degree and masters in theoretical physics from University College London.
