Adam Smith new Head of External Comms at Paddy Power

Paddy Power have hired Adam Smith as their new head external communications, Mr Smith worked previously for the Department of Culture and Media (DCM) last year before quitting during the Leveson Inquiry, in which Judge Leveson said Mr Smith “was diligent … to a fault” in his role at the DCM.

There were accusations during the Inquiry that Mr Smith had developed a close relationship with News Corp and its public affairs director Fred Michel during the failed attempt by News Corp to take control of BskyB. Those accusations were strongly denied at the time.

In his new role with Paddy Power Adam Smith will report to Catherine Colloms who is Director of Corporate Affairs at the company and was hired herself in January of this year.

Colloms said that Adam Smith “brings a wealth of experience and expertise from operating in Westminster and Whitehall”.
