Field Consulting has announced the hire of Mike Katz who is joining to lead client engagement with Labour.

Katz, who joins as a Director, has come from transport operator FirstGroup, where he was Head of Policy & Public Affairs for the Rail division.

He is also Chair of Labour Party affiliate the Jewish Labour Movement and has significant experience and understanding of working with the Party, having campaigned successfully for the Party to tackle antisemitism inherited from the Corbyn era.

During a long political career as an activist, Katz has sat on Labour’s National Policy Forum, been a councillor in Camden and a parliamentary candidate in Barnet and Westminster. He has just been elected to the London Labour Party Regional Exeuctive.

Commenting, Field Founder and Chief Executive Chris Rumfitt said:

“Mike is a hugely experienced and respected figure both within the industry and in Labour Party circles.

We’re delighted he is joining the Field team. His experience within the Labour Party will be crucial in helping our clients understand how the Party works ahead of the forthcoming general election.

He also brings extensive experience in the transport sector and will be invaluable in contributing to the fantastic growth Field has experienced over the past year.”

Field Director Mike Katz added:

“It’s great to be joining a growing agency like Field at a crucial time in politics. With Labour looking firm favourites to form a Government, I’m pleased to bring my experience of working with the Party at all levels to the team.”
