ABOUT STEVEN BIRRELL
A Corporate Relations and transformation leader, I help organisations build trust, navigate complexity, and deliver strategic impact through communications and stakeholder engagement. A leader that I once worked with talked about the importance of being both a brand champion and a business conscience. This has influenced my approach to all roles, ensuring decisions reflect organisational values, priorities and stakeholder expectations. In 2025, I was appointed as an Independent Non‑Executive Director to the board of Ice Hockey UK, the national governing body for the sport.Towards the end of 2025, my full time role as Head of External Communications at DC Thomson was made redundant and I am currently exploring new opportunities. If you feel that I could support your organisation either through a permanent role, or through a fractional, freelance or interim arrangement, I\'d welcome the conversation.
