Tiffany’s early education laid the foundation for a career centred on communication, public engagement, and digital innovation. She began her professional journey in government, rising to become Head of Marketing and later Communications Director at the Cabinet Office, where she helped shape national campaigns and public communication strategy. Her experience working at the heart of UK government led to roles advising the Speaker of the House of Commons on public engagement, before she moved into strategic partnerships and entrepreneurship. Over time she founded and co-founded several initiatives, including Consultancy Club, Curate42, and Eventucate, while leading innovation programmes such as G3NR8, building a career that bridges public service, private-sector transformation, and the future of AI-driven leadership.

Tiffany St James is hired as a London keynote speaker because she brings a rare blend of strategic insight, cross-sector leadership, and entrepreneurial credibility to complex topics like digital change, future skills, and organisational innovation. Her experience as a Strategic Partner at Cactus gave her deep exposure to working with high-growth companies and scaling organisations, helping leaders understand how to turn strategy into measurable impact. Audiences value her ability to translate emerging trends into practical actions that senior teams can implement immediately.

Event organisers also seek Tiffany for her ability to connect policy, technology, and culture in a way that resonates with both executives and frontline teams. She speaks with clarity about navigating uncertainty, building resilient organisations, and equipping workforces with the capabilities needed for rapid change. Drawing on years of experience working with founders, innovators, and transformation leaders, she offers case studies that are grounded in reality rather than theory, making her talks both inspiring and highly actionable.

Whether addressing global conferences, corporate leadership retreats, or public-sector forums, she brings energy, credibility, and a collaborative tone that sparks meaningful conversation long after the keynote ends.
