She is one of the country’s most experienced Conservative political communicators and we are thrilled to welcome her to the business.”

Nadler added: “I am delighted to come on board as a director to head up Champollion’s new planning comms division as well as bringing Conservative perspective, knowledge and contacts to the team’s established expertise.”
