Simon Feldman is a renowned coach and motivational speaker who has dedicated his career to helping teams think with clarity, communicate with confidence and perform at their best, particularly in high-pressure and fast-changing environments. A three-time cancer survivor, Simon brings rare credibility to conversations about resilience, mindset and sustained performance. His lived experience, combined with senior leadership roles in high-profile organisations, enables him to translate personal adversity into practical strategies that strengthen culture, accountability and belief across teams.
Simon’s professional journey began in broadcast journalism, working for Time FM and Essex FM, where he developed a sharp understanding of messaging, influence and audience engagement. He progressed into senior public relations roles, including Senior Press and PR Officer for Hertfordshire Constabulary, Senior PR Campaigns Manager at Royal Mail and Senior PR Manager at British Gas. Across these positions, Simon refined his expertise in reputation management, crisis communication and high-stakes decision-making. Running parallel to this corporate progression was a deeply personal challenge: being diagnosed with cancer at 20 and facing it twice more at 24 and 28. Navigating treatment while building a career shaped his philosophy that thinking patterns, daily habits and personal responsibility are decisive factors in both recovery and performance.
Today, Simon leads consumer and corporate PR at Virgin Media, delivering integrated campaigns across multiple channels and steering communication strategy at scale. His work has involved collaboration with globally recognised figures, including Usain Bolt and Captain Sir Tom Moore, reinforcing his ability to operate at the highest level. In recognition of his impact, Simon received the Best Embodiment of Corporate Purpose at the Corp Comms Awards, highlighting his commitment to aligning organisational performance with meaningful values.
As a motivational speaker, Simon combines executive insight with authentic storytelling. He does not rely on abstract inspiration; instead, he equips audiences with structured tools to reframe setbacks, improve communication and build resilient cultures. Drawing clear links between mindset, behaviour and measurable outcomes, he demonstrates how belief systems influence performance under pressure. Corporate audiences value his warmth, credibility and practicality, leaving with actionable frameworks that support lasting change in leadership, teamwork and wellbeing.
