Tim Ellis – Advisor on National Security and Defence Sector
Tim has worked for major national security and defence organisations including KBR, Leidos and Serco in senior business development roles across national security, defence training and logistical support. He has also built up a successful business from scratch delivering some of the largest national change programmes for the Home Office covering emergency communications, forensics and asset management. Furthermore, his tenure with the RISC Council and his membership of the ADS Security Sector Board where he actively promoted SME’s, have given him unique knowledge of security policy and regulatory requirements over the funding of defence interests in the UK.
Tim’s ability to navigate the complex landscape within the national security and defence domain place him in a unique position to address the strategic funding needs and challenges of the ecosystem of small and medium sized businesses offering highly specialised defence solutions. Tim’s network and depth of expertise enables him to create innovative deal structures and funding solutions to help smaller defence businesses scale up.
