He has been a Parliamentary Private Secretary to the Lord Chancellor's Department (2001-3) and to the Secretary of State for Culture, Media and Sport (2003-5).

He had previously been a tutor for the Open University and a PR consultant, as well as a public affairs adviser to English Heritage and, for twelve years, the editor of History Today magazine.
