Claire Walker is Co-CEO of the Society of London Theatre and UK Theatre. These organisations represent theatre in London and across the UK, as well as running commercial ventures such as officiallondontheatre.com and the Olivier Awards. She joined the Society of London Theatre and UK Theatre in September 2022, having previously been Co-Executive Director of the British Chambers of Commerce between 2018-2022. Prior to the BCC, Claire has held senior roles at the education social enterprise Teach First, Family Lives and Save the Children.  Claire's last three roles have been shared with her long-term job share partner.  Together, they are considered trailblazers in the concept of co-leadership, proving it can have significant benefits in terms of innovation, influence and relationships.

Claire has also held a range of trustee positions, including being a trustee of a children's centre and nursery provider in Southwark. She has two daughters - one at Prendergast Primary and one at Prendergast School and lives in Ladywell.
