Vicky Pryce will succeed Michael Holland as chair of Radix Big Tent.

Pryce is a chief economic adviser at the Centre for Economics and Business Research and chair of the economic advisory board of the British Chambers of Commerce.

She was previously joint head of the UK government economic service, director general for economics at the Department for Business, Innovation and Skills and the senior managing director at FTI Consulting.

She is a former partner and chief economist at KPMG and has held senior economic positions across the banking and oil sectors. She is co-founder of GoodCorporation, a company set up to advise on corporate social responsibility.

Pryce takes over as the first female chair of Radix Big Tent as the cross-party think-tank and registered charity sharpens its focus on reform of the investment and housing systems, while at the same time seeking to devise ways to strengthen the UK’s democracy.

RBT is extremely grateful for Michael Holland’s continuing support, who is to remain as a trustee and board member. He said: “Radix Big Tent has become the think-tank that concentrates on influencing legislators and policy. Vicky and her skills are perfectly positioned to enhance and grow this influence.”

Radix Big Tent’s chief executive Ben Rich added: “Vicky is a big beast in public policymaking. She is one of the sharpest economic thinkers in the country and also has a unique ability to translate that thinking into easily understandable and implementable policies. I am extremely excited that she has agreed to become our chair helping us both to develop new ideas and enhance our cut-through to government.”
