James Wild is a former lobbyist for Hanover Communications, now working as a policy special adviser to UK Business Minister Michael Fallon in the Department for Business, Innovation and Skills.
Background
Wild worked at Hanover as an account director from 2009 until 2012. His previous roles include working as public affairs manager at T-Mobile, as senior account executive at Politics Direct and as policy officer for business issues at Tory Central Office. [1]
PRWeek reported that he is ‘seen as a real Conservative Party man, and he’s trusted’. The appointment was considered unusual in that non Secretaries of State do not usually take on advisers.[1]
- Understood to be an expert on business policy, Wild has advised media and telecoms clients such as 3 Mobile on political and regulatory issues, advocacy programmes and reputation management. [1]
Meetings with outside interests
In April 2013 Wild had breakfast with an unnamed representative from lobbying firm Edelman. [2]
Edelman's many clients include GE Hitachi Nuclear Energy, Shell, the All Party Parliamentary Group on Unconventional Oil and Gas and the Scotch Whisky Association (SWA).
