About Nadira Tudor

Nadira Tudor is an international journalist, moderator, speaker, lecturer, high-level trainer and corporate communications consultant. Nadira brings total engagement and enormous expertise to the work she undertakes for many of the highest profile and most demanding broadcasters, corporations and public bodies across the world.

Over her long career, both on and off screen, she has developed a collaborative approach and process that ensures her interviewees, contributors and clients look and sound fantastic as they present themselves to the world. She has become expert at matching the message, messenger and ‘audience’, drawing on knowledge and skills built over 20 years. This has includes thousands of hours of LIVE Radio and TV, as both a producer and presenter, as well as numerous sector-specialist live events, both in-person on on-line.

Nadira is an independent multimedia international presenter, broadcast journalist and correspondent. She began her career at the BBC simultaneously as a producer, reporter and presenter, where she has since worked across most of its networks – incorporating factual output, entertainment, current affairs and news; from the prestigious BBC Radio 4 to BBC Wales, BBC Radio 1 & 1xtra, BBC 5 Live, BBC Drama, BBC News, BBC Three, BBC Business and BBC Asian Network.

She became a chief news anchor and correspondent for RT International in Moscow, at a time when Post-Perestroika Russia seemed to be committed to an era of reform and openness as part of the global community. She left a year before Russia’s invasion of the Ukraine.

Her global experience gives her a very material and comprehensive appreciation of the challenges that we face in relation to achieving international accord and equity in the face of dwindling resources, failing economies and the rise of ‘cultural politics’.

Nadira has hosted and moderated events, panels and themes on the climate crisis, resilience, technology, finance, UN SDGs, AI, the future of work, venture capitalism, investing in tech, digitalisation, 5G, optimising supply chains, sustainability, gender inequalities, wealth disparities, conscious consumption and creation in the Islamic world and many more. She currently works as a news anchor, correspondent, moderator and presenter for a number of channels, including Channel 5, Reuters, Thomson Reuters, News UK’s TalkTV and Times Radio. She continues to present and report on international and UK domestic breaking news.

Nadira has interviewed thousands of people from all walks of life – politicians, academics, celebrities, sports people and members of several royal families. As a broadcaster she covered both the death of the late Queen Elizabeth and her husband Prince Phillip, all the recent (many) UK leadership contests, the war in Ukraine, the fall of Kabul, the 2016 and 2020 US elections, Brexit, the Syrian conflict, world elections, numerous natural disasters and the 2018 and 2022 World Cups, both from studio and on location.

As well as bringing an enormous body of knowledge and insight to her work in front of the camera and microphone, and as a moderator and host, Nadira’s own experience adds up to a truly compelling story which makes her a brilliant speaker in her own right. She is currently writing a book.

She is a regular MC & moderator for the United Nation Industrialisation & Development Organisation, which runs an annual Global Manufacturing & Industrialisation Summit – GMIS 2019 (Yekaterinburg), GMIS 2020 (virtual) & GMIS 2021 (Dubai). Others include the International Economic Summit 2021 (Kazan), FII 2021 (Riyadh), T20 2021 (G20) Global Summit, European Business Awards for the Environment (EBAE) 2020-2021, FIFA/Gazprom (Football for Kids World Cup 2018), and Regional Media Conference for Journalists (Tula, Russia). Most recently, she was an exec producer and moderator for Alpha Grid/FT in Davos at the World Economic Forum 2023, moderated sessions at the London Investor Show 2022 and presented ‘Rise LIVE’ at the ISE 2022 (Integrated Systems Europe) in Barcelona.

Nadira’s parallel career as a specialist in Media Communications reflects her continuing expertise and interest in education; she is currently a Visiting Lecturer for the Cardiff School of Journalism (JOMEC) and she holds a Master’s degree in Intercultural Communication for Business and Professions from Birkbeck University. Her Master’s degree was partly a development of her work with several military organisations regarding crisis communication.

She has been a cultural and communications consultant, moderator and media trainer for many military organisations on various exercises all over the world, for example, Kenya, Cyprus, Kuwait, Poland, Canada, UK, Germany, France, The Netherlands, Norway and Scotland, often in extreme environments in the field, at numerous NATO bases and other military installations including UK MOD, Royal Navy, Allied Rapid Reaction Corps,(ARRC) and Kuwait MOD. Outside of the military she has worked with H.M. Prisons, NGOs, U.K. Government, academia and business.

Nadira’s corporate career has also led her to work with many high-end clients – Fujitsu, Shell, Royal Airforce (RAF), Microsoft, Samsung Galaxy and Flybe, to name but a few. She is the voice for one of the largest tech companies in the world, Yandex as well as for numerous educational programmes, and a Durex campaign in the UK! She has also narrated an 8-part documentary series for Channel 5/Australia Channel 10 called ‘The Royals Revealed’.
