Miles Young: Reflections of an Oxford Head of House. Friday 7 June at 7:30pm

Miles Young was elected 48th Warden of his alma mater, New College, Oxford, in 2016. The first person from the world of business to hold the role, he is now Chair of the Governance Forum of the Conference. His business career has been spent in advertising and marketing, most recently as Chairman and CEO of Ogilvy and Mather, a leading global communications network.  More than half of that was spent outside the UK, in China, and then in North America.

He is currently overseeing the construction of New College’s £36m new campus, the Gradel Quadrangles, which includes additional student accommodation, student study space, a 100-seat music hall and facilities for the adjacent New College School, plus a tower and gatehouse. Join us to hear his reflections on this bastion of British education, his life there and its future.
