Jeremy Hunt
Sir Jeremy Hunt is a leading voice on economic policy, geopolitics and healthcare reform, drawing on senior ministerial roles under four Prime Ministers since 2010. As Chancellor of the Exchequer until July 2024, he navigated complex fiscal challenges and now serves as a respected commentator on the UK and global economy. The longest-serving Health Secretary in British history, he championed patient safety reforms across the NHS and authored 'Zero: Eliminating Unnecessary Deaths In A Post-Pandemic NHS'. Audiences gain sharp, first-hand insight into economic strategy, international relations and public sector transformation from a fluent Japanese speaker with entrepreneurial experience in the Far East.
When Jeremy Hunt stepped into the Treasury during one of the most turbulent periods in modern British economic history, he stabilised public finances and navigated the UK through unprecedented fiscal challenges as Chancellor of the Exchequer from 2022 to 2024. His tenure under two Prime Ministers saw him steer the economy through the aftermath of pandemic recovery, energy price shocks and global instability, earning recognition for his steady hand during crisis. Before leading the nation's finances, he delivered the internationally acclaimed 2012 London Olympic Games as Culture Secretary, served as the longest-ever Health Secretary where he championed patient safety reforms across the NHS, and represented Britain on the world stage as Foreign Secretary during the complex lead-up to the UK's departure from the European Union.
Jeremy's credentials span more than a decade and a half in senior ministerial roles under four Prime Ministers, giving him rare insight into how government, policy and economic strategy intersect. During his six years as Health Secretary, he oversaw transformative change within the fifth largest employer in the world, securing an additional £20 billion in NHS funding and implementing reforms to create a seven-day health service focused on eliminating avoidable deaths. His 2022 book, 'Zero: Eliminating Unnecessary Deaths In A Post-Pandemic NHS', captured these findings and continues to influence healthcare policy debates. As Foreign Secretary, he strengthened the US-UK Special Relationship, navigated Britain's Middle East policy and forged closer Commonwealth ties during a pivotal moment in international relations. His recent work includes publishing 'Can We Be Rich Again?', which examines welfare reform and economic growth, and proposing a social tariff to support less well-off households with energy bills. A fluent Japanese speaker with entrepreneurial experience in the Far East, Jeremy combines global perspective with practical policymaking experience.
Audiences benefit from Jeremy's first-hand knowledge of economic decision-making at the highest level, particularly his analysis of fiscal policy under both Labour and international administrations including the Trump Government. He translates complex economic and geopolitical challenges into accessible insights, helping organisations understand how global shifts affect business strategy, public services and long-term planning. Whether addressing economic outlook, healthcare transformation or international relations, Jeremy equips audiences with the perspective needed to anticipate change and respond strategically. His ability to connect policy decisions with real-world outcomes ensures that audiences leave with practical understanding and the confidence to navigate uncertainty in an increasingly complex global landscape.
