Frank Davies

I have had the opportunity to work across a wide range of government departments including the Home Office, Cabinet Office, Ministry of Justice, Department of Energy and Climate Change (now Department of Energy Security and Net Zero) and the Department for Work and Pensions. In these roles I have worked alongside diverse operational partners from law enforcement, criminal justice, the UK intelligence community and defence, as well as private operators of the UK’s critical national infrastructure. I thrive leading teams to tackle complex problems when tangible results really matter.

After leaving the civil service and joining TJC, a consultancy firm, I was deployed into the Home Office Accelerated Capability Environment (ACE) to lead the change programme as its leadership transferred from TJC to a team of civil servants. I was able to deliver this complex management and commercial process leaving a confident Home Office team to take over a key national security capability.

I have extensive experience establishing and leading teams to develop and operationalise evidenced-based policy in high profile areas and during crises. I enjoy problem solving and have a proven record of finding new approaches to long standing challenges. I excel at navigating and building influential relationships across large and complex organisations in government, the private sector, third sector and overseas. I understand what drives decision making and tailor solutions that are proportionate to risk and cost. My personable approach allows me to work confidently at senior levels, with CEOs, investors, and with those delivering at the frontline.
