Bio
Ronan Gruenbaum
I have worked with Toby both as a colleague at Ashridge and more recently as an internal client at Hult. I would always defer to him on communications strategies, marketing and PR and have always been impressed by his dedication and ability to get things done. Toby is easy to work with and great at gaining buy-in from multiple stakeholders to meet the needs of the organisation.
Matt Gitsham
I worked closely with Toby for 12 years at Ashridge – Toby’s hard work and his media relationships, as well as advice and training were invaluable for me as a research-active member of faculty. I couldn’t have achieved the level of significant media interest in my research without Toby’s great work.
Kai Peters
I worked with Toby for over 12 years at Ashridge - and promoted him to run our overall Corp Comms. Toby is a reliable, thoughtful and energetic individual who is proactive in developing both content and relationships with media. I strongly recommend Toby for any PR and Comms roles.
