Imogen is a public affairs and communications expert, advising clients across a range of sectors on issues ranging from political engagement and brand building to crisis communications and issue management.

Imogen works across the energy, education and financial and professional services sectors on national and devolved levels, including for the Independent Renewable Energy Generators Group (IREGG), the Venture Capital Trust Association (VCTA), Coventry University Group and the Green Finance Institute.

She has an excellent track record of helping her clients to move the dial on complex regulatory issues – from securing a promise from the government to extend the Venture Capital Trust scheme from its original end date in 2025, to securing onshore wind projects renewed access to government financial support they had been shut out from for almost five years.

Imogen's wider background in PR and public affairs includes experience across financial services, planning, charity and non-profit, energy, fashion retail, infrastructure and sustainability. Before her career in public affairs, she worked for a Labour PCC candidate and at SEC Newgate she specialises in Labour engagement projects.

Imogen leads SEC Newgate’s charity committee, working with organisations such as Speakers Trust and I Have A Voice and using our expertise, knowledge and insight to support causes helping young people to become interested in politics. Imogen is also a primary school governor in Camden, and a trustee of the family support charity Home Start Camden & Islington.
