Edinburgh Central MSP and former leader of the Scottish Conservatives, Ruth Davidson, has been appointed to strategic financial and corporate communications advisory company Tulchan as a Senior Adviser. The firm has offices in London and Singapore.
She will be helping boards to ‘navigate a continually evolving public and corporate landscape’.
Andrew Feldman, Managing Partner at Tulchan Communications said : “We are delighted that Ruth has chosen to join Tulchan as a Senior Adviser and look forward to having her on board. I have no doubt that our clients will benefit immensely from her insight and unique perspective on the rapidly developing evolving relationship between business and politics and the need to navigate the shifting demands of a broader range of stakeholders.”
Ruth Davidson said : “I am very excited to be joining Tulchan at such a critical time for UK PLC. I believe the evolution of Tulchan’s mission statement towards creating stakeholder value is prescient. Political and economic uncertainty persists and the scope for shocks is high. As a result, businesses must continue to renew their licence to operate with their stakeholders and reflect on what is expected of them or risk being targeted by anti-business vested interests and losing public faith.”
Earlier in the summer Ms Davidson announced her resignation as leader of the Scottish Conservatives and she has since stated that she will step down from politics in 2021.
Lord Feldman was chairman of the Conservative Party from 2010 to 2016. He was formerly CEO of the Conservatives and was described by the FT as David Cameron’s oldest political friend.
