Tim Campbell

Following his victory, he led Amstrad’s expansion into the health and beauty sector before transitioning into high-profile public and private sector roles. His commitment to fostering talent led him to establish the Bright Ideas Trust, a social enterprise designed to provide funding and mentorship to start-up founders from underrepresented backgrounds. A champion of vocational training, Tim collaborated with the Mayor of London to expand regional apprenticeship programmes and currently holds the prestigious position of Lord Sugar's aide on The Apprentice. His professional reach extends globally, serving as the Regional Head of Africa for OSTC Group and advising AMS on diversity and inclusion strategies. His contributions to enterprise culture were formally acknowledged with the award of an MBE, and he remains active in civic life through roles on the City of London Corporation's Education Board and the government's Windrush Commemoration Committee.
